Gentamicin, commonly used antibiotics in neonatal care, has a nephrotoxicity, but it is difficulto to
assess renal function in early stage.
This study evaluated the renal function and urinary β2-microglobulin excretion in 17 gentamicin
treated and 11 control neonates.
The results are as follows.
1) Urinary 02-M in gentamicin treated neonates were 0.84±0.17mg/L at postnatal day 1 and
increased to 5.99±1.15mg/L at day 4, 14.17±2.39mg/L at day... |
