Abstract
Slow low efficiency dialysis (SLED) is a hybrid technique of renal replacement therapy. It can be performed with a mobile single-pass batch dialysis system (Genius®) or the multifunctional hemodialysis machines, with reduced dialysate flow and the extended duration of the procedure. The present article reviews the recently published data comparing SLED to continuous renal replacement modalities in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). The technical aspects as well as the practical advantages of SLED-Genius®are discussed, and our experience of using SLED for intraoperative renal replacement therapy during liver transplantation is shortly presented.
