Key Industry Development
In December 2023, Cheshire Medical Center, part of Dartmouth Health, began offering CRRT to ICU patients suffering from kidney failure—reinforcing the essential role of CRRT in intensive care .
Market Drivers & Restraints
Market Drivers
- High AKI Incidence & ICU Admissions: Acute Kidney Injury is on the rise, especially among critically ill and sepsis patients. ICU admissions also surged during the COVID‑19 pandemic, with AKI a key complication .
- Technological Innovations: Systems like Baxter’s PrisMax 2 launch in 2021 and advances in fluid management, automation, and AI-enabled remote monitoring enhance CRRT effectiveness .
Market Restraints
- High Cost of CRRT: CRRT is significantly more expensive than intermittent dialysis—a U.S. survey estimates daily costs of ~USD 870 vs. USD 270, impacting adoption in cost-sensitive settings .
- Operational Complexity & Expertise Needs: CRRT setup requires skilled personnel and strict protocols. Plus, pediatric CRRT systems now face additional regulatory scrutiny (e.g., FDA’s Class II classification in Sept 2024) .

Market Segmentation
By Product Type
The consumables segment led in 2024, including filters, dialysates, replacement fluids, catheters, and tubing—selected due to frequency of use, lower individual costs, and pandemic-driven demand .
By Modality
The CVVHDF (Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration) modality accounted for the largest share in 2024, appreciated for its combined convective and diffusive solute removal .
Other modalities include:
- SCUF (Slow Continuous Ultrafiltration)
- CVVH (Continuous Venovenous Hemofiltration)
- CVVHD (Continuous Venovenous Hemodialysis)
Regional Insights
North America
Dominating with ~39.6% share and revenues of USD 0.46 billion in 2024—driven by high AKI rates, advanced ICU infrastructure, and innovation (e.g., Medtronic's Carpediem pediatric CRRT launched in 2020) .
Europe
Second largest region—spurred by rising kidney disease prevalence (e.g., 3.5 million CKD cases in the UK) and supportive healthcare policies .
Asia Pacific
Fastest growing region. Japan has notably high AKI rates (~40% ICU incidence), pushing demand for CRRT .
