AB Continuous  renal  replacement  therapy  (CRRT)  permits  fluid  and  solute  removal  with  greater  hemodynamic  stability  than  intermittent  hemodialysisTwo  principles  underlie  CRRT:  Diffusion:  net  movement  of  solute  across  semipermeable  membrane  from  high  concentrated  compartment  to  low  concentrated  compartment.  Dialysis  is  a  diffusive  processConvection:  movement  of  solute  across  semipermeable  membrane  due  to  transmembrane  pressure  gradient  (also  known  as  solvent  drag).  Hemofiltration  is  a  convective  process
