Abstract
This single-center retrospective study investigated the clinical effects of combination therapy involving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and continuous intravenous sodium infusion therapy (cIVNa) in critically ill patients with prerenal acute kidney injury (AKI) who were expected to experience insufficient plasma refilling. The clinical data of 92 patients were analyzed. Clinical data from the control (CRRT, n = 49) and intervention (CRRT + cIVNa, n = 43) groups were compared statistically. Combination therapy increased blood pressure and urine volume, while reducing hypotension events, indicating hemodynamic stabilization. Furthermore, it significantly improved the 90-day survival rate (61.9% vs. 38.8%, p < 0.05), 60-day and 90-day survival rates without RRT (59.5% vs. 28.6%, p < 0.01; 54.8% vs. 26.5%, p < 0.01, respectively), survival discharge rate from intensive care unit, CRRT withdrawal rate, and renal replacement therapy withdrawal rate. Combination therapy with continuous renal replacement therapy and continuous intravenous sodium infusion therapy may be a useful treatment option for critically ill patients with prerenal acute kidney injury who require continuous renal replacement therapy.
