Sitting in the Diabetic Kidney Disease session at #PAS2025.
Cherry Mammen presenting on AKI in DKA. Approx 50% of DKA have AKI, and approx 28% have severe AKI. RRT is uncommon (4%) but neurocog outcomes are poorer at 3-6 months.

Very grateful for the opportunity to present our local data-led audit of #AKI at #PSANZ2025. Work made possible by the coding expertise and supervision of Emily See and the amazing resource that is the Centre for Health Analytics at the Melbourne Children’s Campus.

In this podcast, ahead of World Kidney Day 2025, I discuss why preterm birth and post-natal kidney injury can lead to increased mild kidney disease risk in adulthood. Early detection and treatment can reduce progression.
