Abstract

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is currently the mainstay renal support for critically ill patients. However, the optimal intensity of CRRT remains debated owing to the heterogeneity of the study populations and CRRT techniques across centers. The present study investigated the beneficial effects of early and intensive continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) on patients with shock after cardiotomy.
