Abstract:
Last year, five critically ill children with acute renal failure were treated by continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration. Mean treatment duration was 326 +/- 89 (SD)h, for a total of 1632 h. Mean ultrafiltration rates of 5.4 +/- 1.7 ml/min X m2 achieved mean serum urea levels of 150 +/- 25 mg/dl and a decline of mean prehemofiltration serum creatinine level of 3.5 +/- 3.6 to 2.9 +/- 2.0 mg/dl posthemofiltration. Continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration allowed adequate parenteral nutrition with a mean caloric intake of 79.6 +/- 9.2 kcal/kg X day. In the four surviving patients, urinary output started between 12 and 42 days after the onset of acute renal failure. Continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration is a very effective extracorporeal therapeutic system to control azotemia, fluid, and electrolyte balance in critically ill children with acute renal failure and hemodynamic instability.
