Long Term Cognitive Impact of Pediatric Acute Renal Injury
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The research study will investigate the longitudinal cognitive outcomes in subjects admitted as children diagnosed with sepsis who may have had acute kidney injury. Each subject will be contacted 2-15 years after their incident admission in order to solicit responses to a functional and cognitive quality of life survey. Children admitted during the same time frame that did not have kidney injury will also be surveyed.

Detailed Description
250 subjects with a prior admission for pediatric sepsis will be contacted 2-15 years following the incident admission in order to complete a survey to assess their overall quality of life. Children will be administered the Pediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL) survey with a parental section to allow for parental response. Adult subjects will take the adult version of the PedsQL.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Sepsis with acute kidney injury (AKI) Prior admission for sepsis with a diagnosis of AKI as a child. Intervention: The subjects will be administered the Peds QL survey. |
Other: Pediatric Quality of Life (Peds QL) Survey
The subjects will be administered the Peds QL survey. Children will also have a parental section for parental response. This is NOT an interventional study.
|
Sepsis without acute kidney injury (AKI) Prior admission for sepsis without a diagnosis of AKI as a child. Intervention: The subjects will be administered the Peds QL survey. |
Other: Pediatric Quality of Life (Peds QL) Survey
The subjects will be administered the Peds QL survey. Children will also have a parental section for parental response. This is NOT an interventional study.
