Interleukin-18 as a marker of acute kidney injury in asphyxia of neonates

Abstract

Asphyxia remains a common problem in the neonatal nursery and is a significant cause of morbidity and death in the term and preterm neonate. The incidence of asphyxia is estimated to be between 1 and 10 per 1000 live births and is influenced by the local availability of medical resources. Asphyxia can lead to multi-organ dysfunction and a redistribution of cardiac output to maintain cerebral, cardiac, and adrenal perfusion while potentially compromising renal, gastrointestinal, and skin perfusion.
