Acute Kidney Injury & CRRT: The ICU Clinicians Reference
16-page AKI and CRRT reference with a 28-formula live Excel workbook. KDIGO staging, RRT timing, CRRT dose and circuit — every threshold cited with DOI and PMID.
The AKI reference that stages by the criterion everyone skips. 16 pages covering the full KDIGO staging table with the three traps in applying it (the baseline problem, the ignored urine-output criterion, the creatinine lag), estimating renal function when creatinine is moving — Cockcroft-Gault, the race-free CKD-EPI 2021 equation, measured timed clearance and augmented renal clearance — and the pre-renal versus intrinsic versus post-renal workup with FENa, FEUrea and urine microscopy. The RRT timing question is settled against the actual trial numbers from ELAIN, AKIKI and STARRT-AKI, with the urgent indications that override the debate. CRRT is covered as it is actually run: dose with the RENAL and ATN results, the prescribed-versus-delivered gap nobody audits, filtration fraction and circuit settings, regional citrate anticoagulation and how to recognise citrate accumulation, and drug dosing including the loading-dose rule that prevents under-treating septic patients. Six fully worked clinical cases run the arithmetic end to end. Includes a live-formula Excel workbook with 28 formula cells: automatic KDIGO staging by both criteria, Cockcroft-Gault with a steady-state warning, FENa and FEUrea with interpretation, prescribed versus delivered effluent dose, filtration fraction with a clotting-risk flag, and a total-to-ionised calcium ratio with a citrate-accumulation flag. Eight sources, each cited with its DOI and PubMed identifier. Educational reference for licensed clinicians — not medical advice.
