Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the clinical outcome of acute renal failure (ARF) patients when submitted to dialysis and non-dialysis treatments in ICU. Methods: this prospective study included patients over 18 years of age and serum creatinine of >1.5 mg/dl. The patients were included in dialysis and non-dialysis groups. Results: The study included 70 patients, 19 (27.1%) comprised the dialysis group and 51 (72.9%) the non-dialysis group.

“…15 In this study, most of the infected patients were male and were hospitalized in the ICU, characteristics that are similar to the results of other studies. [16][17] The superiority of the hemodialysis temporary catheter insertion due to ARF was about five-fold higher compared with CRF, which was also observed in other studies. [18][19] This is possibly caused by the delay in the referral of these patients to the nephrologist, with a need for emergency hemodialysis and cases of ARF that is secondary to other diseases.…”

“…Yet, the 2007 National Census showed that 73,605 patients were in dialytic treatment, of which 90.8% were undergoing hemodialytic treatment (7) . During the dialytic treatment, patient comorbidity is high and associated with cardiovascular diseases, systemic arterial hypertension, anemia, susceptibility to infection, high prevalence of types B and C hepatitis, bone diseases, malnutrition and other less-defined causes (8) .…”
