Acute kidney injury is a frequent complication following neonatal cardiac surgery and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The objectives of this study were to determine if plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin levels were associated with acute kidney injury and clinical outcomes in neonates with congenital heart disease undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass.
