Hemodialysis and Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

  • First Online:

Abstract

Neonatal hemodialysis (HD) for acute or chronic renal failure is a rare but important component of pediatric nephrological care. The needs for dialysis in infants are usually related to three different indications. Cause can be related to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), acute kidney injury (AKI), and finally inborn error of metabolism [2]. In larger children and rarely in infants, the other indication for renal replacement therapy is intoxication [9]. Because of the rarity of this cause in neonates, it will not be addressed in this chapter.
