Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria
1. A patient, or legal representative, has signed a written informed consent form.
2. Must be receiving medical care in an intensive care unit (e.g., ICU, MICU, SICU, CTICU, Trauma).
3. Age 18 to 80 years.
4. Females of child bearing potential who are not pregnant (confirmed by a negative serum pregnancy test) and not lactating if recently post-partum.
5. Must be receiving and tolerating CRRT therapy for a minimum of 4 hours, but not longer than 24.
6. Expected to remain in the ICU for at least 96 hours after evaluation for enrollment.
7. A clinical diagnosis of ATN due to hemodynamic or toxic etiologies. ATN is defined as Acute Kidney Injury occurring in a setting of acute ischemic or nephrotoxic injury with oliguria (average \<20 mL/hr) for \>6-12 hours or: an increase in serum creatinine ≥2 mg/dL (≥1.5 mg/dL in females) over a period of ≤4 days. (Note: Prerenal, hepatorenal, vascular, interstitial, glomerular, and obstructive etiologies are excluded on clinical or other diagnostic grounds.)
8. Presence of at least one non-renal organ failure or present sepsis as defined in Appendix C.
9. All patients must be able to tolerate regional citrate anticoagulation.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Irreversible brain damage based on available historical and clinical information.
2. Presence of any organ transplant at any time.
3. Acute or chronic use of circulatory support device such as LVADs, RVADs, BIVADs, ECMO.
4. Presence of preexisting advanced chronic renal failure (i.e., ESRD) requiring chronic renal replacement therapy prior to this episode of acute kidney injury.
5. AKI occurring in the setting of burns, obstructive uropathy, allergic interstitial nephritis, acute or rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, hemolytic-uremic syndrome, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), malignant hypertension, scleroderma renal crisis, atheroembolism, functional or surgical nephrectomy, hepatorenal syndrome, cyclosporine or tacrolimus nephrotoxicity.
6. Metastatic malignancy which is actively being treated or may be treated by chemotherapy or radiation during the subsequent three month period after study therapy.
7. Chronic immunosuppression (e.g., HIV/AIDS, chronic glucocorticoid therapy \>20 mg/day prednisone equivalent on a chronic basis). The acute use of glucocorticoids is permissible.
8. Severe liver failure as documented by a Child-Pugh Liver Failure Score \>12 (see Appendix F).
9. Currently in Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) status or DNR status anticipated within the next 7 days.
10. Currently in Comfort measures Only or Comfort Measures Only status anticipated within next 7 days.
11. Patient is moribund or chronically debilitated for whom full supportive care is not indicated.
12. Patient not expected to survive 28 days because of an irreversible medical condition. (This is not restrictive to AKI, and may include situations such as the presence of irreversible brain damage, untreatable malignancy, inoperable life threatening condition, or any condition to which therapy is regarded as futile by the PI.)
13. Any medical condition that the Investigator thinks may interfere with the study objectives.
14. Physician refusal.
15. Patient is a prisoner.
16. Dry weight of \>150 kg.
17. More than one hemodialysis treatment during this hospital admission or prior to transfer from an outside hospital.
18. Platelet count \<30,000/mm3 at time of screening.
19. Concurrent enrollment in another interventional clinical trial. Patients enrolled in clinical trials where only measurements and/or samples are taken (NO TEST DEVICE OR TEST DRUG USED) are allowed to participate.
20. Use of any other Investigational drug or device within the previous 30 days.
