Outcomes of continuous renal replacement therapy versus peritoneal dialysis as a renal replacement therapy modality in patients undergoing Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
Authors' conclusion
Among patients receiving VA-ECMO-supported RRT, our study revealed comparable in-hospital mortality rates between CRRT and PD, although PD was associated with a higher incidence of catheter-related complications.
