Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy for Two Neonates With Hyperammonemia

Objectives: This study aims to assess the feasibility of using hemofiltration for ammonia clearance in low body weight infants with an inborn error of metabolism.Design: A study of two cases.Setting: Quaternary pediatric hospital (Saint Louis Children's Hospital) NICU and PICU.Patients: Infants...
