Acute renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy: incidence and outcome.
BACKGROUND Renal replacement therapy (RRT) for acute renal failure (ARF) may be provided in many settings within the hospital. Such patients require a high level of care and often have a poor prognosis. No prospective studies have accurately defined this population, making the prediction of necessary resources and the planning of services difficult. AIM To ascertain the incidence, causes and ...

Acute renal failure (ARF) is a common condition in hospitalized patients. The aetiology and physiological characteristics differ from those of chronic renal failure (CRF) and both conditions should be approached differently. At present, the approach to the management of ARF is very heterogeneous. Attempts have therefore been made to improve consensus and to standardize treatment in the Acute Di...
متن کاملContinuous renal replacement therapy in acute renal failure.
The management of acute renal failure in the critically ill patient is extremely variable and there are no published standards for the provision of renal replacement therapy in this population. Continuous renal replacement therapy seems to be the treatment of choice because of its superior metabolic and hemodynamic control. There is better organ protection by continuous treatment but no evidenc...
