Guest Docss Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I have seen in few hospitals in all cases of severe oligohydramnios babies are subjected to kidney function test and or renal ultrasound in order to not miss conditions like bilateral renal agenesis, renal dysplasia etc. Do you think this practice is justified ?

Stefan Johansson Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 we don’t have a written guideline, but if the infant is doing well, and passing urine normally, we’d don’t do renal investigations per routine. However, in infants smaller than -3 SD in weight, we tend to screen more, often also blood and USG for renal morbidities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
