If you are using CVH- CAVH will not work without a driving pressure (it 
will cause the membrane to keep clotting) and the driving pressure will 
not be that good once pressures are below 80) and you will require pump 
assisted CVVH. Any way you have to also improve hemodynamics because the 
flux of fluids etc also has to be managed and tolerated.
