Defining post-obstructive diuresis following posterior urethral valve ablation
Neonates with PUV who undergo valve ablation are at risk of POD. Our findings suggest greater urine output after ablation to be a predictor of increased hospital length of stay. Utilizing a urine output (UOP) of >3.5 mL/kg/h may serve as a starting point for defining POD after posterior urethral valve ablation.
