About this trial

Severe rhabdomyolysis is a common medical emergency that can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI), sometimes requiring extracorporeal renal replacement therapy (ECRT). Myoglobin plays a major role among the molecules involved in nephrotoxicity. While ECRT techniques are commonly used in this situation, their actual effectiveness in eliminating myoglobin and improving renal function remains poorly established. In particular, mid-cut-off membranes, developed to better remove intermediate molecular weight molecules, could improve renal prognosis. This study aims to evaluate, using retrospective clinical data, the impact of these techniques on renal recovery.
