Over the past several decades, the clinical aspects of acute kidney injury (AKI) and its management with renal replacement therapy (RRT) have evolved substantially in both the pediatric and adult patient populations. The development of AKI in children is now recognized to be a common occurrence, especially among critically ill neonates and infants, and

Vascular Access for HD and CRRT
2007A good functioning vascular access is an essential component for adequate renal replacement therapy (RRT) in acute kidney injury. Tunneled, cuffed catheters are preferred if the anticipated duration of RRT is more than 3 weeks. The right jugular vein is the preferred insertion site for the temporary dialysis catheter (TDC), with ultrasound-guided ...

Management of CRRT in paediatrics
2007Acute renal failure (ARF) is defined as the cessation of renal function with or without changes in urinary output. The incidence of ARF in paediatric intensive care units is highly variable, ranging from 2% to 8%, and is often associated with severe medical or surgical illness [1].

Dialysate and Replacement Fluid Composition for CRRT
2007Continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRTs) are increasingly used in order to maintain normal or near-normal acid-base balance in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Acid-base balance is greatly influenced by the type of dialysis employed and by the administration route of replacement fluids.

Training, management, and credentialing for CRRT in the ICU
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1997Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in the intensive care unit (ICU) requires a dedicated training and educational process that includes both theoretical and practical approaches. Important goals for this process include achieving an acceptable circuit life without patient complications and providing a high percentage of staff with bedside ...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is very common and has been associated with mortality in septic patients. Severe acidosis, hemodynamic instability, and fluid overload due to resuscitation fluids are often also seen in this population of patients. In this setting, reduction of renal function is often seen and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is ...

CRRT in the area of cost containment: Is it justified?
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1997Intensive care accounts for at least 25% of health care costs. One third of this goes to 10% of patients who, in general, have combined respiratory and renal failure. The cost of renal replacement therapy is, therefore, of major importance. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has many potential advantages over intermittent hemodialysis (IHD ...

A 30 kg child with leukemia develops septic shock with multi-organ system failure including the need for intubation, vasopressor support for hemodynamic compromise, as well as progressive oliguria with both solute and fluid retention. Current ventilator settings include a FIO2 delivery of 70%, a PEEP of 10.

Since continuous hemofiltration was first described by Peter Kramer as a new form of renal replacement therapy, it has undergone a lot of changes, making it a widely accepted treatment for acute renal failure in critically ill patients. Concomitantly, new insights into the pathogenesis of severe sepsis and septic shock have led to a recent form of ...

Mediator removal with CRRT: Complement and cytokines
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1997The evidence from animal sepsis models that hemofiltration may ameliorate the hemodynamic changes that occur in septic shock has led to speculation that continuous renal replacement therapy may have nonrenal benefits in septic patients. Much of the subsequent work has been done to elucidate the mechanisms of this benefit, in particular the role of ...
