CONTINUOUS RENAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY

摘要

CRRT is a new set of tools for providing support to animals with acute kidney injury. Its primary use is in cases where there is a reasonable expectation that the kidneys will return to function in the short term or for stabilization of patients thatare to be transitioned to intermittent dialysis. Treatment of toxicosis and heart failure that is not responsive to diuretics may be other uses for CRRT. Although time, resource and personnel intensive, our experience has been that treating acute kidneyinjury patients with CRRT can be very rewarding.
