Summary
This study follows about 36 children weighing 2.5-10 kg who have acute kidney injury or fluid overload and are treated with the Carpediem continuous renal replacement therapy system.

What this could mean

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could confirm that the Carpediem system is safe and effective for treating kidney injury and fluid overload in small children.
