Vascular Access for Renal Replacement Therapy in Neonates and Infants: A Single Center Experience

Neonatal renal replacement therapy (RRT) is a treatment modality used for severe kidney failure. Historically, its use has been limited in small infants due to circuits with large extra-corporeal volumes that require large double lumen vascular catheters. We sought to review our institution's experience with vascular access and overall survival in infants who receive RRT.
