If you or a loved one require intensive care and continuous dialysis due to acute kidney failure, treatment with a CRRT (Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy) device is one of the most advanced and effective methods globally, which is available in Iran at much more affordable costs compared to other countries. EasyMedTrip, in collaboration with the best hospitals in the country, provides this service specifically to foreign patients.
CRRT is an acronym for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy. This method is a continuous and gentle type of dialysis designed specifically for critically ill patients hospitalized in the ICU, especially those who cannot tolerate conventional hemodialysis.
Targets calcified vessels
Gentle, catheter-based
Restores circulation fast
Short hospital stay
CRRT is an acronym for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy. This method is a continuous and gentle type of dialysis designed specifically for critically ill patients hospitalized in the ICU, especially those who cannot tolerate conventional hemodialysis.Diamond Drill or Orbital Atherectomy – one of the most advanced treatments for severe arterial narrowing especially in patients with heavy calcification. This method uses a diamond-coated drill to grind down calcified plaques inside the vessel, paving the way for stenting or re-opening the artery.
The CRRT device is an advanced technology for removing toxins, regulating electrolytes, and eliminating excess bodily fluids around the clock. With its continuous operation, this device exerts less stress on the body and helps prevent blood pressure drops or damage to other organs. EasyMedTrip offers access to this advanced device in selected medical centers in Iran for foreign patients.
The device allows doctors, with separate and adjustable filters, depending on the patient’s condition, to treat only the kidney or in combination when there is multi-organ failure. Special filters and sets are used for:
Kidney (treating acute kidney failure)
Liver (clearing ammonia and toxins)
Heart (managing fluid and pressure in cardiac patients)
Lungs (controlling fluid status and assisting respiratory ventilation)
| Feature | Conventional Hemodialysis | CRRT |
|---|---|---|
| Duration | 3 to 5 hours, several times a week | Continuous, 24 hours |
| Suitable for | Patients in stable condition | ICU patients with unstable blood pressure |
| Toxin removal method | Rapid diffusion | Slow diffusion and filtration |
| Fluid removal rate | High | Controlled and gentle |
| Risk of blood pressure drop | Higher | Much lower |
In fact, if a patient is in critical and unstable condition, CRRT is a safer and more effective choice. Using portable RO technology (portable water purification system), CRRT makes it possible for dialysis to be performed in any part of the hospital, especially in the ICU. Unlike traditional hemodialysis that requires a fixed dialysis unit and limited time, CRRT:
is portable and flexible.
with special sets and filters for kidney, liver, heart, and lung, allows multi-purpose treatments.
places less stress on the patient and removes toxins gradually and precisely.
reduces the risk of hypotension and damage to vital organs.
While CRRT treatment in many European and Gulf countries may cost several thousand dollars per day, these services are offered in Iran with the same medical quality but at much lower costs (about 70% price reduction). The final cost depends on the length of ICU stay, the patient’s condition, and the type of auxiliary services (translator, transfer, patient companion, etc.). The final price is variable depending on:
Number of days hospitalized in ICU
Type of filter and set used (kidney, liver, heart, or lung)
Auxiliary services (translator, transfer, patient companion, etc.)
Immediate admission in hospitals equipped with CRRT devices
Use of specialized filters and sets for multi-organ treatment
Pre-travel coordination with ICU and nephrology specialists
Simultaneous translator (Persian, Arabic, English)
Accommodation for the patient companion in hotels or guesthouses near the hospital
Transfer from airport to hospital by ambulance or dedicated vehicle
Follow-up of the patient’s condition even after hospital discharge
Treatment quality at global standard level
Much lower cost compared to Europe and Gulf countries
Specialist healthcare teams with high experience in intensive care
Access to modern and portable equipment
Full support from start to finish of the medical travel
Send initial medical documents via WhatsApp or email
Case review by specialist physicians
Issue of an official proforma invoice and treatment plan
Obtaining the medical visa, booking hospital and flight
Undergoing treatment under supervision of top specialists
