Abstract:
Objective To study the curative effect of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) to the patients with acute renal failure after liver transplantation. Methods From Mar. 2004 to Jan. 2005, the continuous renal replacement therapy was applied to 7 patients with acute renal failure after liver transplantation. The average time of CRRT was 36.1h. The volume of fluid displacer during CRRT was 2-4L/h and the volume of blood flow was 150～250ml/min. Normal heparin was used as anticoagulant. Results For the 7 patients, 4 improved, 2 died. The contents of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and blood Cr of all the 7 patients have obviously declined(P0.05). The haemodynamic variables were stabilized during CRRT and no obvious side-effect related to CRRT was found. Conclusions CRRT improved the prognosis to the patients with acute renal failure after liver transplantation, showed a favorable tolerance, and may be applied as a emergency measure to the patients with acute renal failure.
