  • Title: Management of acute renal failure complicating cardiac surgery in infants and children.
    Author: John EG, Levitsky S, Hastreiter AR.
    Journal: Crit Care Med; 1980 Oct; 8(10):562-9. PubMed ID: 7418418.
    Abstract:
    Acute renal failure (ARF) is an important complication of cardiac surgery in children. The incidence is 8% and mortality ranges from 10-89%. Thus, these infants pose a formidable therapeutic challenge in management. This review is an attempt to present a brief discussion of normal renal functions in neonates and children followed by the discussions of problems of renal failure and management in children undergoing cardiac surgery.
