The Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative--part V: operational characteristics of CRRT

Paul M Palevsky et al. Adv Ren Replace Ther. 2002 Oct.

Abstract

This report represents the consensus statement of the ADQI workgroup addressing the operational characteristics of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Issues addressed included the specific operational characteristics of continuous hemofiltration (HF), continuous hemodialysis (HD), and continuous hemodiafiltration (HDF) and the impact of these different modalities on solute removal. The relative roles of arteriovenous (AV) and venovenous (VV) modalities of therapy were also evaluated. The workgroup also addressed the optimal components of a CRRT system from an operational standpoint.
