Outpatient Nephrotoxic Medication Prescription after Pediatric Intensive Care Acute Kidney Injury
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Nephrotoxic medication (NTM) avoidance may prevent further kidney damage in children with acute kidney injury (AKI). We compared outpatient NTM prescriptions in children with or without AKI during pediatric intensive care (PICU) hospitalization. We hypothesize that children with AKI are prescribed NTMs at the same rate as those without it. METHODS: This was a retrospective administrative data study of children <18 years, admitted to two PICUs in Montreal, Canada, from 2003 to 2005, with ≥30 days of provincial drug coverage. We evaluated the presence of ≥3 outpatient NTM prescriptions during the first year and 5 years after PICU discharge. RESULTS: Of 970 children, 23% had PICU AKI. In the 1st-5th years after discharge, 18% AKI vs. 10% non-AKI and 13% AKI vs. 4% non-AKI patients received ≥3 NTM prescriptions, respectively. There was no association between PICU AKI and prescription of ≥3 NTMs during the first year (adjusted RR 1.02 [95% CI 0.95-1.10]) nor in the first 5 years post-discharge (adjusted RR 1.04 [95%CI 0.96-1.12]). CONCLUSIONS: By offering a better understanding of the current state of outpatient NTM prescription to children with AKI, our study is a step toward considering strategies such as knowledge translation interventions for decreasing NTM exposure and improving outcomes in children with AKI.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
