Summary

Neonatal acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in the NICU, associated with high morbidity and mortality. Prematurity, low birthweight, sepsis, asphyxia, congenital heart disease, and nephrotoxic drugs are major risk factors. Early diagnosis is challenging as serum creatinine lacks sensitivity. The STARZ score, a composite clinical-laboratory tool, has shown high accuracy for predicting early neonatal AKI. This study aims to validate the STARZ score in neonates admitted to Assiut University Children's Hospital for early identification of AKI and improved clinical outcomes."
