In the late 1980s, specific machines for CRRT were designed and a new era of RRT in the critically ill patient began [7, 8]. The therapy started to get standardized and clear indications began to be defined. Special requirements from easier institution of CRRT and easier monitoring of treatment led to the development of the first generation of CRRT-integrated machines with several pumps and different technique capabilities. The ‘Prisma’ machine was one of the first integrated CRRT machines designed specifically for acute RRT in intensive care. The preassembled circuit and the autopriming feature made CRRT possible in almost every intensive care unit, with improved safety and performance.
