coefficient (KoA) over a wide range of hemodialysis operating conditions. When QB and QD are low, however, mismatch of these flows within the hemodialyzer creates a shunt in which no solute transfer occurs. In a previous study of nine patients during sustained low-efficiency dialysis, QB of 200 ml/min and QD of 100 ml/min were used with a 1.8 m polysufone low-flux hemodialyzer. Measured Kd for ...
متن کاملContinuous renal replacement therapy.
Acute renal failure refers to sudden deterioration in biochemical and physiological functioning of kidneys and often associated with multi organ failure. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) holds special significance for the treatment of renal failure due to a variety of factors. It is believed that CRRT helps in restoration of acid-base imbalances and electrolyte abnormalities. Along w...
متن کاملAcute Renal Replacement Therapy
Acute kidney injury is an important clinical condition particularly in the intensive care unit. It develops in as many as two-thirds of critically ill patients during the course of their illness and constitutes a significant independent risk factor for death. About 5% patients admitted to an ICU will eventually require renal replacement therapy. In these patients, in-hospital mortality is extre...
متن کاملContinuous renal replacement therapy.
Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a blood purification modality that uses a combination of convection and diffusion to eliminate uremic toxins and correct electrolyte imbalances. Although CRRT is usually associated with the treatment of acute renal failure, it can also be useful in treating many types of toxicoses and drug overdoses. Unlike intermittent hemodialysis, in which the p...
متن کاملContinuous Renal Replacement Therapy
Acute renal failure (ARF) is currently more frequently seen as part of a more complex syndrome defined by sepsis and/or multiple organ failure. Evolution in the field of hemodialysis has led to a parallel development of new systems for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in critically ill patients. The various CRRT modalities differ in the type of vascular access, application of diffusi...
