  • Title: [Treatment of acute renal failure by continuous hemofiltration in newborn infants and infants].
    Author: Kremp O, Boudailliez B, Krim G, de Broca A, Grevisse C, Risbourg B.
    Journal: Pediatrie; 1989; 44(7):573-6. PubMed ID: 2812974.
    Abstract:
    During acute oligoanuric renal failure in neonates and infants, arteriovenous or veno-venous continuous hemofiltration is a simple, useful technique when peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis cannot be used. It allows fluid removal, optimal calorie intake and mild blood purification, when waiting for diuresis to stabilize. It does not give any control over hypercatabolism; the use of continuous dialysis increases epuration.
