Decreases in Nephrotoxic Pain Medications Are Not Associated With Increased Opioid Utilization in Critically Ill Children.
Abstract
Quality improvement initiatives to decrease rates of nephrotoxic medication exposure have reduced rates of acute kidney injury (AKI) in noncritically ill children. The objective of our study was to analyze the implementation of a similar program in critically ill children and to measure important balancing measures including opioid and benzodiazepine exposure.
