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). 2000, 28: 421-425.

It utilises a semi-permeable membrane known as a filter to allow water and certain molecules to pass through the membrane as filtrate, while larger molecules remain behind within the blood.

Aim: We aimed to characterize the burden of CRRT filter clotting in patients with COVID-19 infection and to describe a CRRT anticoagulation protocol that used anti-factor Xa levels for systemic heparin dosing. 10.1053/j.ajkd.2003.09.014. A comparison of two polysulphone hemofilters with different hollow fiber lengths showed transmembrane pressure and increased survival time being lower with the longer filter [34]. PubMed Epub 2022 Mar 14. Crit Care Med. An anticoagulation protocol using systemic unfractionated heparin, dosed by anti-factor Xa levels is a reasonable approach to anticoagulation in this population. 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.

If citrate accumulates, iCa decreases and metabolic acidosis ensues, since bicarbonate continues to be removed by filtration or dialysis, while citrate is not used as a buffer. Regional anticoagulation with citrate emerges as the most promising method. For example, catheter dysfunction was found to be associated with low central venous pressure [12].

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. <>

Introduction and Aims: CRRT (Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy) is a useful modality for acute kidney injury (AKI) with hemodynamic instability. Therefore, clinicians search for alternatives such as CRRT without anticoagulation [3538], increasing natural anticoagulants, minimal systemic anticoagulation, or regional anticoagulation. 2003, 124: 26S-32S. 1995, 41: 169-172. <>
2023 Jan;19(1):38-52. doi: 10.1038/s41581-022-00642-4. -, Tolwani A. The use of regional anticoagulation with citrate is limited by the patient's capacity to metabolize citrate, which is decreased if liver function or tissue perfusion fails [74]. Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) may predispose patients to thrombotic events. CRRT is performed through pump-driven venovenous extracorporeal circuits and acts as renal support through blood purification to allow solute and fluid . %

Citrate replacement solutions for predilution CVVH contain 11 to 15 mmol citrate per liter [8388] and for predilution CVVHDF, 13 to 23 mmol/l [40, 8992]. Google Scholar. Among total patients at risk, the percent displayed under Filter Loss 1, 2, and 3 represents the number who lost a filter divided by the total number who entered that period at risk. Some general principles are summarized in Figure 2 and are discussed below. Zaman T, Moore K, Jellerson J, Chahal Y, Schumacher J, Dalessandri-Silva C, Aragon M. BMC Nephrol.

Crit Care. 2004, 126: 188S-203S. CRRT does not appear to increase survival compared to intermittent renal replacement therapy (IRRT), but may affect renal recovery [ 1, 2 ]. Incidence of thrombotic complications in critically ill ICU patients with COVID-19. Bellomo R, Teede H, Boyce N: Anticoagulant regimens in acute continuous hemodiafiltration: a comparative study. Others use a ratio of more than 2.5 for accumulation [75]. Jeffrey RF, Khan AA, Douglas JT, Will EJ, Davison AM: Anticoagulation with low molecular weight heparin (Fragmin) during continuous hemodialysis in the intensive care unit. CRRT needs continuous systemic anticoagulation to maintain extracorporeal circuit because the circuit is frequently interrupted by dialyzer clotting. These presumed abnormalities in hemostasis have been associated with filter clotting during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) combines the possible advantages of hemofiltration (higher middle molecular clearance) with less hemo-concentration. Filter size may play a role and larger surfaces may be of relevance for filter survival and solute clearance when CVVHD is applied. 10.1016/j.jcrc.2005.01.001. endobj
Clotting of the CRRT filter is a major limitation to care, as it leads to inefficient dialysis, causes blood loss, and depletes limited resources (CRRT filters) [ 12, 13 ].

Gabutti L, Marone C, Colucci G, Duchini F, Schonholzer C: Citrate anticoagulation in continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration: a metabolic challenge. For a constant buffer delivery, these flows are to be kept constant, while they can be adjusted to correct metabolic acidosis or alkalosis. Access failure causes blood flow reductions, which are associated with early circuit clotting [5]. It has been suggested that with predilution, membrane performance is better maintained by reducing protein adsorption. Nephrol Dial Transplant. The most common anticoagulant options for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) include unfractionated heparin (UFH), regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA), and no anticoagulation. x]K0@L$0ZxQvvvv*']BM'i=I)` c6l~6cPyc;%br?a<=&uZ.@G2C.I[Z
