This document provides a checklist and report for the handover of a patient on continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). The checklist includes items to inspect such as the circuit integrity, any clots present, de-airation chamber level, filter pressures, anticoagulation levels, emergency tray contents, physician orders, patient hemodynamics, fluid balances, circuit issues from the previous shift, and available supplies. The report section documents specific parameters like flow rates, solutions used, and fluid balance goals to ensure safe and effective continuation of CRRT between shifts.
