Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an extracorporeal technique used in acute circulatory and respiratory failures refractory to conventional therapies. ECMO patients are at risk of developing severe acute kidney..
Read MoreAbstract While renal replacement therapy (RRT) allows for precise fluid management as well as addressing electrolyte imbalances and the removal of other necessary compounds, its early initiation has not shown..
Read MoreAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication of cardiac surgery that contributes to postoperative morbidity and mortality. The timing of renal replacement therapy (RRT) remains unclear. The Artificial..
Read MoreAbstract Rationale: Data are suggesting that altered antimicrobial concentrations are likely during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Objectives: The primary aim of this analysis was to describe the pharmacokinetics of antimicrobials..
Read MoreAbstract We aimed to investigate the prevalence and associated factors of newly diagnosed end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring renal-replacement therapy (RRT) among survivors of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and determine..
Read MoreAbstract Critical illness is often complicated by acute kidney injury (AKI). In patients with severe AKI, renal replacement therapy (RRT) is deployed to address metabolic dysfunction and volume excess until..
Read MoreAbstract Intensive care unit (ICU) patients with end‑organ failure will require specialised machines or extracorporeal therapiesto support the failing organs that would otherwise lead to death. ICU patients with severe..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: Patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) often require renal replacement therapy (RRT). The challenge of inserting a dialysis catheter (DC) could be solved by direct connection of RRT lines..
Read MoreAbstract This guideline for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) fluid and electrolyte management for all patient populations is intended for educational use to build the knowledge of physicians and other health..
Read MoreAbstract Background Levosimendan has been shown to confer direct renoprotection in renal endotoxemic and ischemia-reperfusion injury and could increase renal blood flow in patients with low-cardiac-output heart failure. Results from..
Read MorePatients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support frequently develop renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT). RRT may be performed via a dialysis catheter based approach or via the ECMO..
