Lessons Learned from a Small Pediatric Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy Program

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has become a pillar of care in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) over the past few decades. Quality indicators (QIs) have been evaluated that reflect safe and accountable CRRT. However, there is a paucity of data on outcomes and QIs in smaller-volume...

description Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has become a pillar of care in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) over the past few decades. Quality indicators (QIs) have been evaluated that reflect safe and accountable CRRT. However, there is a paucity of data on outcomes and QIs in smaller-volume CRRT programming. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the efficiencies, effectiveness, and outcomes of a small-volume CRRT program. Eighty-two patients received CRRT over a 13-year period, and 79% survived to discharge.

The program also had positive outcomes for QIs related to CRRT efficiency and time of initiation, dosing delivery, and rate of adverse events.
