Abstract
BARRIO, V.. Intermittent versus continuous renal replacement techniques: pro intermittent. Med. Intensiva [online]. 2009, vol.33, n.2, pp.93-96. ISSN 0210-5691.
After an introduction that summarizes the new definitions and risk classification of acute kidney injury, along with the consequences on its epidemiology, available evidence in the literature is reviewed in order to compare intermittent and continuous renal replacement therapy in terms of survival, renal function recovery, hemodynamic stability, transferences between the different techniques and major complications.
Keywords : Acute kidney injury; Continuous renal replacement therapy; Intermittent hemodialysis; Survival; Complications.
