Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a broadly-accepted treatment for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury to optimize fluid and electrolyte management. Despite intensive dialysis care, there is a high mortality rate among these patients. There is uncertainty regarding the factors associated with in-hospital mortality among patients requiring CRRT. This review evaluates how various risk factors influence the in-hospital mortality of critically ill patients who require CRRT. Five databases were surveyed to gather relevant publications up to 30 June 2020. We identified 752 works, of which we retrieved 38 in full text. Finally, six cohort studies that evaluated 1190 patients were eligible. The in-hospital mortality rate in these studies ranged from 38.6 to 62.4%. Our meta-analysis results showed that older age, lower body mass index, higher APACHE II and SOFA scores, lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, decreased serum creatinine level, and increased serum sodium level were significantly associated with increased in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients who received CRRT. These results suggest that there are multiple modifiable factors that influence the risk of in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients undergoing CRRT. Further, healthcare professionals should take more care when CRRT is performed on older adults.
