ABSTRACT Aim No standardized criteria for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) discontinuation have been established. Kinetic estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a newly developed estimation method based on dynamic changes of serum creatinine expected to reflect the true GFR. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive role of kinetic eGFR for CRRT discontinuation. Methods A retrospective single‐centre cohort study was conducted. Acute kidney injury (AKI) patients who received CRRT between May 2015 and April 2016 were enrolled. Successful CRRT discontinuation was defined as neither resuming CRRT for the next 48 h nor receiving intermittent haemodialysis 7 days from the CRRT discontinuation. Clinical factors associated with CRRT discontinuation were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results Of 52 AKI patients treated with CRRT, 38 could discontinue CRRT while 14 could not. Urine volume, regular and kinetic eGFR of days 0 (day of CRRT discontinuation) and 1 were all good predictive parameters (area under the ROC curve (AUC) > 0.7). Kinetic eGFR of day 1 showed the AUC of 0.87 [95% confidence interval 0.73–0.94]). Combining kinetic eGFR of day 1 and urine volume of day 0 gave a high AUC of 0.93 [95% confidence interval 0.82–0.97]. The combination was significantly greater than urine volume of day 0 ( P = 0.008). Conclusion Kinetic eGFR combined with urine volume was a better predictor for CRRT discontinuation. Evaluation of kinetic eGFR utility in other clinical settings will be necessary.
