Hematuria is the presence of gross or microscopic blood in the urine. It is more common in premature infants in the neonatal intensive care unit than in healthy newborns. Studies on incidence are lacking, but one older retrospective study reporting gross hematuria in 0.21 per 1000 admitted infants <1 month old. The differential diagnosis in neonates is different than in older children. Gross hematuria requires an immediate evaluation, whereas microscopic hematuria is usually transient and benign in the neonate.
