There is large variability in kidney function and injury in neonates with neonatal encephalopathy (NE) treated with therapeutic hypothermia (TH). Acute kidney injury (AKI) definitions that apply categorical approaches may lose valuable information about kidney function in individual patients. Centile serum creatinine (SCr) over postnatal age (PNA) may provide more valuable information in TH neonates.
