  • Title: Pathogenesis and treatment of acute renal failure.
    Author: Gaudio KM, Siegel NJ.
    Journal: Pediatr Clin North Am; 1987 Jun; 34(3):771-87. PubMed ID: 3295726.
    Abstract:
    This article reviews the current understanding of the pathophysiologic sequence of events that culminate in an acute renal insult. The use of urinary indices to differentiate the physiologic causes of oliguria, namely, diminished intravascular volume or renal perfusion, from an established acute renal failure, is discussed for children and adolescents, as well as for neonates. Treatment modalities for the support of children with acute renal failure are described in detail.
