  • Title: Continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration (CAVH) in a premature newborn as treatment of overhydration and hyperkalemia due to sepsis.
    Author: Schröder CH, Severijnen RS, Potting CM.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr Surg; 1992 Dec; 2(6):368-9. PubMed ID: 1477068.
    Abstract:
    If renal replacement therapy is required in the neonatal period, peritoneal dialysis is generally applied. In some cases, for example after extensive abdominal surgery, peritoneal dialysis is not possible. Continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration may then be an attractive alternative. The present paper describes the positive results in a 1265 g premature baby.
