Renal Replacement Therapies in the Intensive Care Unit
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Renal replacement therapies (RRT) are commonly used in critically ill patients to achieve solute clearance, maintain acid-base status, and remove fluid excess. The last two decades have seen the emergence of large randomized control trials bringing new evidence regarding how RRT should now be managed in the ICU. RRT is considered a vital supportive care and needs to be adequately prescribed and delivered. This chapter first summarizes the basic principles and characteristics of the three major RTT modalities: intermittent hemodialysis (IHD), prolonged intermittent RRT (PIRRT), and continuous RRT (CRRT). Then, the large body of literature regarding indications for initiation (early vs late), choice of modality (intermittent vs continuous and diffusion vs convection), dosing (intensive vs less-intensive), and anticoagulation alternatives is reviewed to guide clinical decision-making. Recent evidence in the optimal timing of discontinuing RRT is reported. Finally, troubleshooting scenarios frequently seen in clinics and requiring an adapted RRT prescription are also discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
