Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has become the preferred dialysismodality to support critically ill children with acute kidney injury. As CRRT technologyand clinical practice advances, experiences using CRRT on small infants andneonates have increased. In neonates with hyperammonemia or acute kidneyinjury during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy, CRRT canbe a safe and effective technique. However, there are many limitations of CRRT inneonates, including vascular access, bleeding complications, and lack of neonatespecificdevices.
