This multicenter, randomized trial compared the effect of CRRT, delivered at two different levels of intensity (40 ml/kg vs 25 ml/kg), on 90-day mortality among critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. Treatment with higher-intensity continuous renal-replacement therapy did not reduce mortality at 90 days.

The authors concluded that acute kidney injury necessitating in-hospital dialysis was associated with an increased risk of chronic dialysis but not all-cause mortality.

This prospective randomized parallel group trial aimed to assess mortality and renal recovery of patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) receiving either standard (SED) or intensified extended dialysis (IED) therapy in the intensive care unit. 156 patients with AKI were randomly assigned to receive standard dialysis or intensified dialysis. No differences between intensified and standard [...]
