Table 1

The pediatric RIFLE (pRIFLE) criteria adapted for defining the stage of AKI in children with dengue fever.

pRIFLECreatinineUrine output criteria (ml/kg/hr)

RiskIncreased creatinine 1.5 times from baseline or eGFR decreased by 25%<0.5 for 8 hours

InjuryIncreased creatinine 2 times from baseline or eGFR decreased b >50%<0.5 for 16 hours

FailureIncreased creatinine 3 times from baseline or eGFR decreased b >75%<0.3 for 24 hours or anuria for 12 hours

LossPersistent failure >4 weeksā€‰

End stagePersistent failure >3 monthsā€‰

Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative group created the RIFLE criteria in 2004, and the pediatric RIFLE (pRIFLE) criteria adapted RIFLE criteria for use in children.
