Brief Summary
Approximately 25-35% of all children admitted to the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) or neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) will develop Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) during the first seven days after admission. AKI is associated with a worse outcome, including an increased risk of mortality compared to patients without AKI. However, this AKI prevalence estimation is based on serum creatinine based glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), which is known to be inaccurate. The investigators postulate that measured GFR (mGFR) based on iohexol clearance in critically ill children will detect a higher prevalence of children with AKI than currently used methods based on endogenous markers. This study will additionally provide mechanistic knowledge on the relative contribution of GFR and renal transport to renal function in critically ill children.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Prevalence of AKI in critically ill children based on iohexol plasma clearance
AKI will be defined by using age-specific reference values of GFR. Based on their standard deviations (SD), three groups are defined: * Stage 1: mean -1 SD \> GFR \< mean -1.5 SD * Stage 2: mean -1.5 SD\> GFR \< mean -2 SD * Stage 3: GFR \< mean -2 SD Patients will be grouped according whether they lack AKI or have AKI (either stage 1, 2 or 3). When a patient will be classified as having AKI at one moment and not fulfilling the AKI-criteria at another, or classified into different stages of AKI within one day, the highest stage of the 72 hours will be used for analysis.
72 hours
Secondary Outcomes (8)
Prevalence of AKI using serum creatinine, creatinine clearance, urinary iohexol, serum cystatin C, serum PENK and/or blood urea nitrogen based eGFR equations.
72 hours
Serum PENK levels, in relation to iohexol based GFR-measurements in critically ill children.
72 hours
Agreement between diagnosis of AKI when based on iohexol clearance compared to diagnosis based on serum creatinine levels

Other Outcomes (1)
To explore the relationship of genetic variation with the development of AKI.
72 hours
Interventions
* Administration of iohexol: each 24 hours one bolus IV (1-5ml) during 72 hours * Blood samples are drawn for analysis of iohexol concentrations and other parameters of renal function at 2, 5 and 7 hours after administration * Urine is collected from catheter between 4 and 6 hours after adminstration to determine urine creatinine and iohexol concentrations
