An anticoagulation protocol using systemic unfractionated heparin, dosed by anti-factor Xa levels is a reasonable approach to anticoagulation in this population. Some of the solutions contain additional citric acid to reduce sodium load. Anticoagulation with citrate has complex metabolic consequences, which are related to the dual effects of citrate as an anticoagulant and a buffer. Regional anticoagulation with citrate emerges as the most promising method. ACCESS Historically, early dialysis circuits required the removal of blood from an artery with return of the "cleaned" blood to a vein. 10.1093/ndt/gfl606. Crit Care.

Accumulation of citrate can also be the result of an unintended citrate over-infusion or of decreased removal in case of a decline in membrane performance at constant citrate infusion. Nevertheless, bleeding complications were generally reduced in the citrate groups. endobj Although these processes are to some degree inevitable, they are facilitated by poor therapy management. With the femoral route, tip position should be positioned in the inferior caval vein. <> Nephrol Dial Transplant. Most information comes from observational and in vitro studies in chronic hemodialysis patients, who need their catheters intermittently and for a much longer time (reviewed in [11]).

Differences in circuit life between studies can be explained in part by the wide variety of citrate dose (2 to 6 mmol/l blood flow), fixed citrate infusion or citrate dose titrated on postfilter iCa, the use of dialysis or filtration (predilution or postdilution), differences in CRRT dose and filtration fraction, or by a reduction in citrate flow used for control of metabolic alkalosis. CRRT and citrate anticoagulation Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has emerged as the preferred dialysis modality for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI), particularly those with haemodynamic instability. A high TMP along with a high pressure drop tend to indicate clotting. The most common anticoagulant options for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) include unfractionated heparin (UFH), regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA), and no anticoagulation. Agraharkar M, Isaacson S, Mendelssohn D, Muralidharan J, Mustata S, Zevallos G, Besley M, Uldall R: Percutaneously inserted silastic jugular hemodialysis catheters seldom cause jugular vein thrombosis. Kidney Int. However, accumulation of citrate due to decreased metabolism can be detected accurately by the symptoms of metabolic acidosis, increasing anion gap, ionized hypocalcemia, and most specifically by an increased total/iCa concentration. Reduced filter downtime may compensate for the lower predilution clearance. Intensive Care Med. Given the long half-life of fondaparinux and danaparoid (more than 24 hours), monitoring of anti-Xa is mandatory. Higher solute clearances can be attained at relatively lower blood flows and may thus increase circuit survival. The rate of CRRT filter loss is high in COVID-19 infection. NxStage also has established a small number of dialysis clinics committed to the development of innovative care delivery models for patients with ESRD. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) delivers gradual clearance of solutes, fluid balance control, and haemodynamic stability. Nevertheless, PGs may be a safe initial alternative when HIT is suspected. 2020;395:10541062. The https:// ensures that you are connecting to the Crit Care Med. Anaesth Intensive Care.

Conclusions: The rate of CRRT filter loss is high in COVID-19 infection. Median first filter survival time was 6.5 [2.5, 33.5] h. There was no difference in first or second filter loss between the anti-Xa protocol and standard of care anticoagulation groups, however fewer patients lost their third filter in the protocolized group (55% vs. 93%) resulting in a longer median third filter survival time (24 [15.1, 54.2] vs. 17.3 [9.5, 35.1] h, p = 0.04).

One small randomized cross-over study (n = 15) and one study comparing 33 patients on predilution CVVH to 15 historical postdilution controls found longer circuit survival with predilution [25, 26] at the cost of a diminished clearance [26]. In predilution CRRT, substitution fluids are administered before the filter, thus diluting the blood in the filter, decreasing hemoconcentration, and improving rheological conditions.
