December 14, 2022 updated by: University Hospital, Ghent

Study of the Kinetics of Uremic Toxins in the ICU Patients With Acute Renal Failure, in Order to Optimize the Dialysis Dose: Patients With Sepsis/Multi-organ Failure

Study of the kinetics of uremic toxins in the ICU patients with acute renal failure, in order to optimize the dialysis dose: patients with sepsis/multi-organ failure. The sampling of blood and dialysate will be done during dialyses with different durations (4, 6 and 8h)
