We aim to assess an AKI Clinical Decision Algorithm (CDA) using a sequential risk stratification strategy integrating the Renal Angina Index (RAI), urine Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) and the Furosemide Stress Test (FST) to optimize AKI and FO prediction and management in critically ill children. The gene discussed is LCN2; the disease is acute kidney injury.
