Outcome of Patients Treated With RRT

Outcome of Patients Treated With Renal Replacement Therapy

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a common serious complication after cardiac surgery. AKI not only prolongs the hospitalization time of patients undergoing cardiac surgery and increases the cost of treatment, but also is an independent risk factor for postoperative death. The aim of this study is to investigate the outcome of patients treated with renal replacement therapy (RRT), and to evaluate the short-term and long-term outcomes of patients with RRT.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Critically ill patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery admitted to intensive care units.
• Patients receiving RRT for renal support
• Patients over 18 years of age

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients <18 years
• Refusal of consent
