Efficacy of Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and Intermittent Hemodialysis in Patients with Renal Failure in Intensive Care Unit: A Systemic Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and intermittent hemodialysis (IHD) in patients with renal failure in intensive care unit (ICU).

Methods
