Mortality in infants diagnosed with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is relatively high despite advances in neonatal care. Infants with CDH are potentially at increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). Within CDH population, infants diagnosed with AKI are at increased risk for ECMO use and mortality. This is the largest study to address the association and outcomes of AKI in term infants diagnosed with CDH.
