Sponsor's own description
Acute kidney replacement therapy (i.e., dialysis) is used in 6-10% of patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs). The amount of acute kidney replacement therapy use has increased in Canadian ICUs over the last several years. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) remains the most common form of acute renal replacement therapy used in ICUs. Many different parts aspects of CRRT lack a usual way to be done, and because of this, are done differently in different ICUs. Not having generally accepted markers of the performance and delivery of CRRT is a main reason that we have these practice difference. This is an important gap in the way that clinicians deliver this important ICU therapy and is a main focus of ongoing research in ICU and dialysis. The proposed project is a continuation of a program of work that first reviewed the current state of the quality and safety in ICU and dialysis. Then, a systematic review of all potential quality markers was done to see what options for measures were possible. Next, following a meeting of leaders of dialysis in the ICU, the most important of these measures were ranked to decide which ones could be used in monitoring CRRT for patients.
