Acute Kidney Injury Requiring Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy
Conditions
Brief summary
This clinical trial aims to investigate whether the low treatment intensity (12 mL/kg/hr, low-dose hemodialysis/filtration) or the medium treatment intensity (25 mL/kg/hr, standard-dose hemodialysis/filtration) is more effective and safer for continuous renal replacement therapy in critically ill patients.
Interventions
Dose of continuous hemodialysis and/or hemofiltration

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Patient who meets all of the following criteria and who has given informed consent. 1. Adults (18 years of age or older, regardless of the time since ICU admission) currently admitted to an intensive care unit\*. \*Includes high care units, where continuous monitoring is conducted and intensive care physicians are in charge of medical care. 2. A diagnosis of acute kidney injury is made according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) international diagnostic criteria (one of the following is met) * Serum creatinine increased by more than 0.3 mg/dL within 48 hours * Serum creatinine increased more than 1.5-fold from baseline and the increase is considered to have occurred within 7 days * Oliguria (\< 0.5 mL/kg/hr) lasting more than 6 hours 3. The treating intensivist believes that continuous kidney replacement therapy is necessary
