AI Summary
A study published online on Oct. 14 in the New England Journal of Medicine found that intermittent hemodialysis, used as an initial treatment for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury who need renal replacement therapy, is not noninferior to continuous renal‑replacement therapy.

The findings suggest that intermittent hemodialysis does not provide equivalent outcomes to continuous therapy in this setting.
