Demand | Capacity | Example | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
High | Normal | High catabolic state High nutritional loading Poisoning | Reduce demand if possible Monitor for support renal support |
High | Low | Decreased GFR from AKI | Renal support Reduce demand if possible |
Normal | Low | CKD Non-catabolic AKI | Add renal support if necessary to maintain steady state |
Low | Low | Malnutrition and wasting CKD | Assess for nutritional state and add renal support if necessary |
