To determine prospectively the variables predicting the outcome of patients with severe acute kidney injury requiring haemodialysis

Abstract

Background & Methods: The aim of the study is to determine prospectively the variables predicting the outcome of patients with severe acute kidney injury requiring haemodialysis. The Polysulfone Diacap (Low Flux 1.2m2, KUF 7.9 Polymed) membrane was used in all patients. The approach to anticoagulation was dependant on patient coagulation profile with either heparin free or intermittent heparin as advised by clinician.
