Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in critically ill patients and is associated with increased short- and long-term morbidity, hospital mortality, and chronic kidney disease with the risk of chronic dialysis. The incidence of AKI in the intensive care unit (ICU) ranges from approximately 30% to 60% of critically ill patients.Renal support therapy (RST) is a cornerstone of treatment in critically ill patients; however, its application is not without adverse events, including hemodynamic instability and the risk of chronic dialysis.Intradialytic hemodynamic instability in critically ill patients is a possible and potentially life-threatening condition, in a potential risk of ESRD.Objective: To correlate episodes of arterial hypotension during Renal Support Therapy (RST) in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and assess their impact on patient outcomes.
