A Clinical Model for Dialysis Discontinuation in AKI

August 16, 2023 updated by: University of Sao Paulo General Hospital

A Clinical Model to Predict Successful Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) Discontinuation in Patients With Acute Kidney Injury (AKI)

A retrospective study evaluating AKI patients in whom RRT was interrupted for at least 48 hours. Patients who were still RRT-independent 7 days after initial RRT cessation were included in the "Success" group, as opposed to the "Failure" group. Baseline characteristics and variables at the time of RRT interruption were collected. Multivariable analysis was performed and a model was generated to evaluate the prediction of success.
