Abstract

Continuous renovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) is the most widely used renal replacement therapy for the treatment of critically ill patients with acute renal failure on the intensive care unit. Whether or not congestive heart failure is an indication for CVVH is controversial and needs to be discussed. Therefore, we present a patient with congestive heart failure who was treated successfully with CVVH.
