Nomenclature for renal replacement therapy and blood purification techniques in critically ill patients: practical applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article reports the conclusions of the second part of a consensus expert conference on the nomenclature of renal replacement therapy (RRT) techniques currently utilized to manage acute kidney injury and other organ dysfunction syndromes in critically ill patients. A multidisciplinary approach was taken to achieve harmonization of definitions, components, techniques, and operations of the extracorporeal therapies. The article describes the RRT techniques in detail with the relevant technology, procedures, and phases of treatment and key aspects of volume management/fluid balance in critically ill patients. In addition, the article describes recent developments in other extracorporeal therapies, including therapeutic plasma exchange, multiple organ support therapy, liver support, lung support, and blood purification in sepsis. This is a consensus report on nomenclature harmonization in extracorporeal blood purification therapies, such as hemofiltration, plasma exchange, multiple organ support therapies, and blood purification in sepsis.

Design and challenges of the Randomized Evaluation of Normal versus Augmented Level Replacement Therapy (RENAL) Trial: high-dose versus standard-dose hemofiltration in acute renal failure.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The optimal dose of renal replacement therapy (RRT) in acute renal failure (ARF) is uncertain. METHODS The Randomized Evaluation of Normal versus Augmented Level Replacement Therapy Trial tests the hypothesis that higher dose continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) at an effluent rate of 40 ml/kg/h will increase survival compared to CVVHDF at 25 ml/kg/h of effluent d...
متن کاملStandard nomenclature for renal replacement therapy in acute kidney injury: very much needed!
ADQI (Acute Dialysis Initiative) has traditionally led the field when it comes to changes in the treatment of AKI and continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRT), and also, in this case, a future consensus conference on the important contribution of information communication technology and large data management is in the planning phase. As a prerequisite for this consensus, the adoption of a ...
متن کاملKidney-lung crosstalk in the critically ill patient.
Despite advances in renal replacement therapy, the mortality of acute kidney injury (AKI) has remained high, especially when associated with distant organ dysfunction such as acute lung injury (ALI). Mortality rates for combined AKI/ALI reach 80% in critically ill patients. While the clinical presentation of AKI-associated ALI is characterized by increased pulmonary edema, a defining feature of...
متن کاملA First Evaluation of OMNI®, A New Device for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy.
BACKGROUND Omni® (B. Braun, Germany) is a new-generation, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) machine designed to improve user interface, minimize downtime and optimize renal dose delivery. It was never tested in humans. METHODS We used Omni® to provide CRRT in 10 critically ill patients. We collected therapy data, metabolic parameters and evaluated user's satisfaction with a survey. ...
