Official title
A Randomized Prospective Study Comparing High Dose Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) to Standard Dose CVVHDF in Critically Ill Patients With Acute Renal Failure at the University of Alabama at Birmingham
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
In the last three decades, the mortality associated with acute renal failure (ARF) in the ICU has remained unchanged at greater than 50%, despite improvements in dialysis technology. The primary objective is to determine whether Continuous Veno-Venous Hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) using an ultrafiltration rate of 35 ml/hr/kg (high dose) leads to a greater reduction in all-cause ICU mortality compared to standard CVVHDF using an ultrafiltration rate of 20 ml/hr/kg.
