Monitoring and managing the health of kidneys in the neonatal population is important for their longevity. In this podcast, we talk with paediatric nephrologist, Dr Tom Forbes, as he discusses the whys and hows of monitoring the health of kidneys in premature infants. Tom also talks about the Neonatal Kidney Collaborative Guidelines for the follow-up of ex-neonatal patients with respect to their kidney health. Don't forget about World Kidney Day 13th March.
