Improving CKRT Outcomes in Neonates and Infants through Interdisciplinary Collaboration (ICONIIC): Education Practices and Care Delivery Models.

Improving Continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) Outcomes in Neonates and Infants Through Interdis ciplinary Collaboration (ICONIIC) is a multicenter quality improvement and research registry. We aimed to identify programmatic structures and educational practices for neonatal and infant CKRT. A survey focusing on care delivery and models, units offering therapy, staff-to-patient ratios, and education protocols was distributed to institutions in ICONIIC using the Carpediem machine. Of the 13 responding sites, 11 used the Carpediem machine in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (ICUs), 9 in Neonatal ICUs, and 8 in Cardiac ICUs. A collaborative care model was most common (69.2%). While education practices varied, all sites required nurse-specific training, and all but one mandated provider oversight during CKRT initiation. Understanding these practices may inform best practices for neonatal and infant CKRT.
