The aim of the study is to characterize the influence of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis on the cerebrovascular autoregulation.
Patients at the intensive care unit who suffered acute renal failure with the need of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis will be investigated with continuous veno-venous hemodialysis and in a time window without continuous veno-venous hemodialysis to investigate the influence of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis on the cerebrovascular autoregulation.

Change from Baseline cerebrovascular autoregulation to cerebrovascular autoregulation during continuous veno-venous hemodialysis
Is there an influence of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis at the cerebrovascular autoregulation, which would be a side effect with limiting use in patients with brain injury or the need of intensive monitoring of cerebral perfusion pressure in this patients.
