Urinary Creatinin/Protein Ratio in Preterms

Completed
Conditions
Renal Failure
Preterm Infant
Registration Number
NCT04608279
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de la Réunion
Brief Summary

From the first days of life, the newborn presents a "physiological" proteinuria explained by the coexistence of a glomerular and tubular immaturity, all the more marked as the gestational age (GA) is weak. In the child term, proteinuria decreases the first month and its persistence is the marker of kidney damage. The persistence of proteinuria in preterm infants is also considered a marker of renal impairment; however, neither the "physiological" values nor the pattern of urinary excretion of proteins in the first month of life are known.

The proteinuria / creatininuria ratio is a validated indicator of proteinuria, as it is correlated with 24-hour urine proteinuria.
