Abstract
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury is still one of the most common serious complications in critical ill patients and is associated with high mortality. Even small changes in renal function significantly influence survival and long-term prognosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Selective literature research and analysis of intensive care population with renal failure. CONCLUSION: Prophylactic measures as well as early diagnosis and therapy must be the goal of a modern intensive care treatment. Various treatment modalities for renal replacement therapy allow individualized treatment of each patient. The review summarizes the main aspects on prophylaxis and early diagnosis of acute kidney injury as well as the different treatment modalities for an individualized renal replacement therapy.
