Abstract:

The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) is increasing and up to 10% of total ICU patients need renal replacement therapy. The major causes of AKI are sepsis and hypovolemic shock. Adequate intravascular fluid and stable blood pressure to maintain renal perfusion remain the basis for the managements of AKI. Since the efficacy of diuretics was challenged, renal replacement therapy should be implemented at the early phase of anuria. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is preferred to avoid of intradialytic hypotension. Either continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) or hybrid therapy using sustained low efficiency daily dialysis (SLEDD) is good choice for the hemodynamic unstable sepsis patients. A multi-disciplinary team approach to correct underlying disease, optimize hemodynamic and nutritional support, backup with early renal replacement intervention can prevent multiple organ failure and improve outcome.

Key words: Acute kidney Injury, Continuous renal replacement therapy, Sustained low efficiency daily dialysis
