Survival of elderly patients with stage 5 CKD: comparison of conservative management and renal replacement therapy
BACKGROUND Elderly patients with end-stage renal disease and severe extra-renal comorbidity have a poor prognosis on renal replacement therapy (RRT) and may opt to be managed conservatively (CM). Information on the survival of patients on this mode of therapy is limited. METHODS We studied survival in a large cohort of CM patients in comparison to patients who received RRT. RESULTS Over an ...

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...
