What is this trial about?
Renal replacement therapy may affect carbon dioxide elimination, which may theoretically
influence measurement of energy expenditure by means of indirect calorimetry. However,
available clinical studies are noct conclusive on this issue. This observational study
aims to investigate the effect of renal replacement therapy on indirect calorimetry in
critically ill mechanically ventilated patients.
What are the participation requirements?
Inclusion Criteria
- simultaneous requirement for mechanical ventilation and renal replacement therapy
- informed consent
Exclusion Criteria
- age <18 years
- requirement for therapeutic hypothermia
- serum lactate >4 mmol/l
- requirement for inspiratory oxygen fraction >0.6 and positive end-expiratory pressure >12 mbar
- leak in the ventilator circuit (e.g. due to a chest tube)
- requirement for extracorporeal circulatory support
- refusal to participate in the study.
