Intensity of continuous renal replacement therapy for acute kidney injury

Abstract: Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common condition among patients in intensive care units (ICU), and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a blood purification technique used to treat the most severe forms of AKI but its effectiveness remains unclear.

“…For example, previous studies have shown that, amongst general critically ill patients, diffusion and convection modes have similar capacity for clearance of small molecules (e.g., urea, creatinine, ammonia, glutamine) [26]. Furthermore, high (≥35mL/kg/h) and low (<35mL/kg/h) dose of renal replacement have been reported to have similar effect on mortality and renal function recovery [27]. Even if in specific subgroups of patients, these technical aspects may apply differently, the conclusions of such studies help to strengthen the validity of our results [28].…”

“…8 In parallel with these epidemiologic trends, various modifications in methodologic approaches have been developed, optimizing the intensity or timing of CRRT to improve survival. [9][10][11] Morbidity and mortality rates are still extremely high in this subset of patients, despite appropriate CRRT. 6,[12][13][14] Accordingly, precise assessment and monitoring of patient status is essential to improve overall outcomes.…”

“…Dosing of various medicines, including antibiotics, must be adjusted to renal function levels. Continuous hemodiafiltration should be considered when laboratory data suggest hyperkalemia or metabolic acidosis, or when pulmonary edema results from excessive volume [35]. Patients with severely impaired renal function should receive perioperative HD.…”
