AB  - Dialysis  may  be  required  for  the  treatment  of  either  acute  or  chronic  kidney  disease  (CKD).  The  use  of  continuous  renal  replacement  therapies  (CRRT)  and  prolonged  intermittent  renal  replacement  therapy  (PIRRT)/slow  low-efficiency  dialysis  (SLED)  is  specific  to  the  management  of  acute  renal  failure  and  is  discussed  in  Chap.  304.  These  modalities  are  performed  continuously  (CRRT)  or  over  6–12  h  per  session  (PIRRT/SLED),  in  contrast  to  the  3–4  h  of  an  intermittent  hemodialysis  session.  Advantages  and  disadvantages  of  CRRT  and  PIRRT/SLED  are  discussed  in  Chap.  304.
