Tues | Thu | Fri | Sat: 5pm To 7pmAcute Kidney Injury (AKI) is common among acutely ill patients. The prognosis of AKI requiring Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) is dismal, with short-term mortality rates often exceeding 50%. But even patients who do not have AKI, occasionally, require extracorporeal therapies, such as hepatic support, plasma exchange, and more recently, cytokine removal through adsorbents. As such, it is essential that practicing nephrologists are aware of new technologies and evidence to guide the care of these growing critically ill patient populations.
Critical Care Nephrology (CCN) is a new field in medicine that focuses on the issues related to the management and prevention of AKI and its associated consequences,
and the provision of renal (and multiorgan) replacement therapies. The aim of CCN is to provide integrated multidisciplinary care in the ICU with coordinated efforts and dynamic monitoring of the patients.
