- Types of CRRT

➡️Types of  CRRT :

There are several types depending on

 the method of blood purification and its purpose, such as :

CVVH (Continuous veno venous Hemofiltration): To slowly remove fluid and waste.

CVVHD (Continuous Veno venous Hemodialysis): Similar to traditional hemodialysis but at a slower rate .

CVVHDF (Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration):

 A combination of the two methods to filter toxins and fluids in a balanced manner.

➡️Advantages of continuous hemodialysis machine :

Less stress on the heart and blood vessels : because it removes fluids and toxins slowly, allowing the body to adapt without negative effects on blood circulation .

Suitable for unstable patients : especially in emergency and intensive care situations .

Reducing complications that may occur from rapid dialysis, such as sudden low blood pressure .
