1. Continuous renal replacement therapy
CRRT is a medical therapy used in intensive care units to manage patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) or severe kidney dysfunction. It involves the continuous removal of waste products and excess fluids from the blood.
CRRT is used when a patient’s kidneys are unable to adequately filter waste and excess fluids from the blood, leading to dangerous levels of toxins and fluid overload.
CRRT differs from hemodialysis in that it is slower and performed continuously over 24 hours or longer periods. Hemodialysis, on the other hand, is intermittent and typically lasts for a few hours.
Yes, CRRT can be used cautiously in patients with heart failure to manage fluid overload and electrolyte imbalances, with careful monitoring of hemodynamic status.
