Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is one of the available  treatments for acute kidney injury (AKI) in the intensive care unit (ICU). CRRT, unlike the traditional form of dialysis, delivers slow and continuous treatment, which is ideal for hemodynamically unstable patients. Learning about this therapy's purposes, advantages, and processes is a must for both healthcare professionals and caregivers.
