Renal replacement therapy in the ICU: intermittent hemodialysis, sustained low-efficiency dialysis or continuous renal replacement therapy?

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2018
Purpose of review Severe acute kidney injury in the ICU setting often requires renal replacement therapy (RRT). Intermittent hemodialysis (IHD), hybrid forms of RRT such as sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED), as well as continuous renal replacement

Renal Replacement Therapy in Neonates

NeoReviews, 2019
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a highly prevalent disease entity in the NICU, affecting nearly one-quarter of critically ill neonates by some reports. Though medical management remains the mainstay in the treatment of AKI, renal replacement therapy (RRT) is indicated when conservative measures are unable to maintain electrolytes, fluid balance, toxins ...

Renal Replacement Therapy in the Elderly

Scottish Medical Journal, 1997
Before 1980 few patients over the age of 65 started chronic dialysis, despite the fact that the incidence of advanced chronic renal failure was approximately ten times greater in this group compared to young and middle aged adults.1 Since that time the number of elderly patients starting renal replacement has increased markedly and accounted for 38 ...

Renal replacement therapy in Nepal

Hemodialysis International, 2010
AbstractRenal replacement therapy in Nepal fulfills only a small part of the current needs, with 97 hemodialysis machines available for the general population of 29 million. Transportation difficulties to dialysis centers preclude many of the patients from end‐stage renal disease care, due to the rural nature of the population. Peritoneal dialysis (PD)

Renal Replacement Therapy in the Elderly

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 2009
Rates of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease are increasing as the United States population ages. The elderly with chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease face specific challenges with regard to medical care. Being of elderly age should not be a contraindication for initiation of renal replacement therapy.

The Impact of Renal Failure and Renal Replacement Therapy on Outcome During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Therapy.

Artificial Organs, 2016
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in patients treated with veno-arterial (VA-) or veno-venous (VV-) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). In this setting, the use of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) can help to optimize fluid status ...

Renal replacement therapy and anticoagulation

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2017
Today, up to 20% of all intensive care unit patients require renal replacement therapy (RRT), and continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRT) are the preferred technique. In CRRT, effective anticoagulation of the extracorporeal circuit is mandatory to prevent clotting of the circuit or filter and to maintain filter performance.

Renal Replacement Therapy in Neonates

Clinics in Perinatology, 2014
The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) has steadily increased in the last decade in neonates and infants. Despite the extensive proposed pharmacologic approaches to treat or prevent AKI, renal replacement therapy is the only available therapeutic approach to manage the consequences of significant AKI and maintain electrolyte homeostasis and fluid ...
