摘要

Background

Renal replacement therapy (RRT) is frequently used in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). Here, we provide guidelines for the management of RRT in critically ill patients on the intensive care unit (ICU).

Methods

We convened a systemic literature research and a Delphi process with a bi-national multidisciplinary consensus panel including 22 clinicians of 12 different German-speaking societies (Germany and Austria) with expertise in RRT. This structured guideline process was the basis for the evidence-based statements and recommendations.

Results

We identified seven clinical areas needing guidance: (1) start, (2) modality (diffusion and convection), (3) continuous/ intermittent, (4) anticoagulation, (5) dose (6) pharmacotherapy, (7) stopping criteria. The consensus produced 73 statements and recommendations regarding key clinical areas, the most important 47 statements and recommendations are summarized in this overview.

Conclusions

This evidence-based bi-national guideline should provide physicians with guidance for delivering best practice to critically ill patients with a dialysis-dependent AKI.
