[Continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration in interstitial pulmonary edema].
In a retrospective study 40 ICU patients, all underwent Continuous Arteriovenous Hemofiltration (CAVH) for acute pulmonary, acute renal insufficiency or both, were evaluated for lung function parameters and fluid balance. It could be shown that a group of patients suffering from pulmonary insufficiency and with a history of major trauma or obstetric complications mainly benefits from fluid control by means of CAVH, while diuretics were unable to perform the desired action.
