Optimizing citrate dose for regional anticoagulation in continuous renal replacement therapy: measuring citrate concentrations instead of ionized calcium?
Regular measurement of systemic and post-filter ionized calcium (iCa) concentrations is imperative to correctly handle regional citrate anticoagulation dose during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Keeping post-filter iCa within a tight range guarantees optimal circuit function and enhances filter life span [1, 2], whereas a decrease in plasma iCa, with subsequent elevation of the to...
متن کاملSimplified Citrate Anticoagulation for CRRT Without Calcium Replacement
Since 2012, citrate anticoagulation is the recommended anticoagulation strategy for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). The main drawback using citrate as anticoagulant compared with heparin is the need for calcium replacement and the rigorous control of calcium levels. This study investigated the possibility to achieve anticoagulation while eliminating the need for calcium replacement...
متن کاملRegional citrate anticoagulation in continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration using commercial solutions.
BACKGROUND Treatment with trisodium citrate provides an effective means of regional anticoagulation during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). We evaluated the efficacy, safety and cost of a regional citrate anticoagulation protocol using commercial solutions in 17 critically ill patients treated with continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF). We performed a total of 22 session...
متن کاملImplementation of a Simplified Regional Citrate Anticoagulation Protocol for Post-Dilution Continuous Hemofiltration Using a Bicarbonate Buffered, Calcium Containing Replacement Solution.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Recent updates to the Nikkiso Aquarius continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) platform allowed us to develop a post-dilution protocol for regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) using standard bicarbonate buffered, calcium containing replacement solution with acid citrate dextrose formula-A as a citrate source. Our objective was to demonstrate that the protocol was safe and ...
متن کاملImplementation of continuous renal replacement therapy with regional citrate anticoagulation on a surgical and trauma intensive care unit: impact on clinical and economic aspects—an observational study
BACKGROUND Regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) is being increasingly used during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in intensive care units as an alternative to systemic heparin anticoagulation. However, due to its availability in a variety of solutions and dialysis systems, RCA is still considered a complex intervention, possibly leading to confusion and pitfalls in everyday practi...
