Brief summary
The goal of this observational study is to assess the performance of the multiFlux hemofilterwith regional or systemic anticoagulation during CKRT treatments. The multiFlux hemofilter is a single use device within the extracorporeal blood circuit during extracorporeal blood purification treatments for acute renal replacement therapies.
Detailed description
Patients enrolled in this clinical investigation will be treated either with citrate anticoagulation in Continuous venovenous hemodialysis (CVVHD) or Continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) in post-dilution mode (RCA-post-CVVHDF) with RCA using 4% citrate with Ci-Ca dialysate (without gas barrier)) or with heparin in any of the possible CKRT modes (pre-, post- or pre-post CVVH, CVVHD, pre-, post- or pre-post CVVHDF) for up to 10 days based on investigator´s decision (data beyond 10 days will not be collected within the study) or until withdrawal of informed consent or death. For the study, treatment data will be documented for a maximum of 10 days. The selection of the filter size depends on the prescription of the attending physician. The body weight limitations as shall be considered: Mutiflux 160 ≥ 40 kg, Multiflux 130 ≥ 30 kg, Multiflux 60 ≥ 8 kg
