Abstract:
Rhabdomyolysis (RM) is a potentially life-threatening entity that can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI). Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) alone is known as effective therapy, but the additional use of a hemoadsorber (like CytoSorb®) might increase its efficacy.

The essential diagnostic tools for detecting myocardial necrosis and monitoring individuals suspected of having acute coronary syndrome (ACS) include:
Troponins
Troponins, particularly cardiac troponins I and T, are the most precise and sensitive markers of myocardial injury. They are detectable within 4-6 hours of myocardial injury and remain...
