Groups/Cohorts Assigned Interventions
EMIC 2 dialysis
Patients on ICU requiring dialysis for acute renal insufficiency
 Device: Hemodialysis with EMIC 2 filters
Patients with indication for routine continuous hemodialysis due to acute renal insufficiency

Detailed Description:

A better middle molecule clearance has been shown until 24 hours of duration. The investigators will extend our observations until 72 hours.
