Abstract

We report three neonates treated with continuous hemodialysis. The first case was a 5-day-old infant who demonstrated hyperammonemia due to a urea cycle disorder. After treatment with continuous hemodialysis (CHD) for 48 hours, he recovered from hyperammonemia and was able to be removed from HD. The second case was a 3-day-old infant with transient hyperammonemia. He was treated with CHD for 40 hours and was then removed from HD. The third case involved severe neonatal asphyxia. Although he was effectively treated with CHD for 9 days, he was not able to survive. In the future, as the survival rate of neonates improves, it is expected that the number of infants treated with hemodialysis, as in our three cases, will increase. It is necessary that safer and more effective hemodialysis become an established therapy.
