Nephronic Reduction After Neonatal Acute Renal Failure in Preterm (IRENEO)

October 15, 2014 updated by: Nantes University Hospital

Renal Prognosis of Former Preterm Infants 3 to 10 Years After Neonatal Acute Renal Failure

The aim of this study is to evaluate the signs of nephronic reduction in preterm infants who have presented neonatal acute renal failure. The investigators hypothesize that signs of nephronic reduction would appear earlier in former preterm with neonatal acute renal failure than in control preterm infants.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

50 former preterm infants who presented acute renal failure will be evaluated between 3 to 10 years.

They will be compared to 25 control former preterm infants without renal dysfunction for signs of nephronic reduction.

At inclusion, in order to analyse renal function, all infants will have blood sampling, renal echography and blood pressure measurement. Urine sample will also be collected.

Two months later, parents will be informed on the results.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: cases with neonatal acute renal failure in preterm
renal echography to analyse the kidney
Blood sampling to analyse different parameters of renal function

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
microalbuminuria
Time Frame: Day 1 (at inclusion)
The primary outcome of this study is to prove that former preterm infants with neonatal acute renal failure are at higher risk of nephronic reduction than control former preterm infants and that they will present microalbuminuria as earlier sign of nephronic reduction. Precisely, if microalbuminuria divided by creatinuria is above 20mg/g or 2mg/mmol, it will be considered as pathologic.
Day 1 (at inclusion)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
measurement of blood pressure
Time Frame: Day 1 (at inclusion)
Evaluation of other renal parameters: blood pressure, renal filtration, tubular functions evaluation of renal size and differentiation by ultrasound
Day 1 (at inclusion)
measurement of length and volume of kidney by renal echography
Time Frame: day 1
