TREATING ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY USING CONTINUOUS AND INTERMITTENT RENAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY
Marko Ćaćić
Sažetak
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the sudden kidney excretory function loss. Patient data of patients hospitalized on intensive care unit from 2009 to 2011 and had to undergo one sort of renal replacement therapy (RRT) – continuous or intermittent – was used. 63 patients were in this study, 46 on continuous RRT (CRRT) and 17 on intermittent RRT (IRRT). The aim was to analyze connection between RRT method and outcome, DM type 2 and outcome, malignant disease and outcome, to analyze whether there is statistically significant difference between these and other parameters (potassium, urea, creatinine, blood pressure, age, and sex). Outcome was momentary survival – whether patient did or didn’t survive. Results have shown that mortality rate was higher at patients on CRRT. However, these patients were haemodynamically unstable compared to patients on IRRT.
