ClinConnect Summary

The investigators performed a single center experience accumulated over 12 months since February 2009 with a continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) and hybrid technique named sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED). The primary end point was death from any cause by day 30. Intensive care unit (ICU) patients were eligible for inclusion when serum creatinine was \> 2 mg/dL, and renal replacement therapy (RRT) was initiated. The selected patients were treated with CVVHDF or SLED.
