Pediatric blunt renal trauma practice management guidelines: Collaboration between the Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma and the Pediatric Trauma Society

Abstract: BACKGROUND Injury to the kidney from either blunt or penetrating trauma is the most common urinary tract injury. Children are at higher risk of renal injury from blunt trauma than adults, but no pediatric renal trauma guidelines have been established. The authors reviewed the literature to guide clinicians in the appropriate methods of management of pediatric renal trauma. METHODS Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation methodo… Show more

“…Kidney damage due to blunt or penetrating trauma to the abdomen is the most common type of damage to the urinary tract. According to the latest guidelines of 2019 (10) , non-surgical management is recommended for paediatric patients with blunt force kidney trauma of all grades. The only absolute indication for surgical treatment is lack of response to resuscitation, which manifests with persistent haemodynamic instability.…”

“…14,15 The American Association for Surgery of Trauma (AAST) organ injury scale based on CT findings grades renal injuries from I to V. 12 NOM of low-grade (AAST I-III) renal injuries is well-accepted whilst less evidence is available for management of high-grade (AAST IV-V) renal injuries. 16,17 Failure to respond to resuscitation, which manifests as haemodynamic instability, is the only absolute indication for operative management. 16,17 This retrospective study aimed to document paediatric renal trauma in a level 1 trauma centre in a low-to middleincome country (LMIC), to identify deficits in care to improve outcomes at our institution and to compare these results to those found in local and international literature.…”
