ABSTRACT
Introduction: in pediatric age the incidence of acute kidney injury associated with infectious diseases is high. It is considered potentially preventable and presents with high morbidity and mortality.Objective: to characterize pediatric patients with acute kidney injury.
Methods: a study was conducted in a hemodialysis center in Angola with a population of 60 pediatric patients evaluated in the period from May 2017 to May 2020. The information was taken from the clinical process of the hospital and the dialysis center.
Results: male patients predominated, aged over 10 years. Their etiology was related to malaria and nephrotic syndrome. The main symptoms were neurological and due to volume overload.
Conclusions: most of the patients required hemodialysis type renal replacement therapy, with a satisfactory evolution and low mortality.
