These presumed abnormalities in hemostasis have been associated with filter clotting during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Introduction and Aims: CRRT (Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy) is a useful modality for acute kidney injury (AKI) with hemodynamic instability. Time from first to second filter loss (where protocol patients were exposed to low systemic UFH dosing) and time from second to third filter loss (where protocol patients were exposed to high systemic UFH dosing) were analyzed with a log-rank test.

Clogging, Clotting & Circuit Changes Most circuit changes are related to membrane clogging and clotting. <> Pediatr Nephrol. Manipulation of citrate or blood flow, ultrafiltrate, dialysate, or replacement rates, and their mutual relation changes the amount of buffer substrate entering the patient's circulation.

Other reasons for premature clotting related to the CRRT technique are repeated stasis of blood flow [5], hemoconcentration, turbulent blood flow, and blood-air contact in air-detection chambers [6].

Suctioning of side holes against the vessel wall may impair flow, which is minimized with side holes over the (near) total circumference and absent with end holes. For several reasons, continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) appears to be associated with shorter circuit life than continuous venovenous hemodialysis (CVVHD) [23]. Nephrol Dial Transplant. Therefore, improving circuit life is clinically relevant. Second, hemofiltration is associated with hemoconcentration, occurring as a consequence of ultrafiltration.

NxStage Medical, Inc. 2003, 31: 2450-2455. Citrate removal with CRRT also depends on citrate concentration in the filter and filtration fraction; high fractions are associated with relatively higher citrate clearance and a lower buffer supply to the patient. 2002, 28: 1419-1425. Because the citrate patients often had a higher risk of bleeding, groups are generally not comparable.

During continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), blood is conducted through an extracorporeal circuit, activating coagulation by a complex interplay of patient and circuit. Bookshelf An important issue is locking of the CRRT catheter when not in use by controlled saline infusion or by blocking with heparin or citrate solutions to prevent fibrin adhesion, which slowly reduces lumen diameter [18, 19].

If citrate is used for anticoagulation of the circuit, separate thromboprophylaxis must be applied. Clin Ther. Postfilter iCa can be used for fine tuning of the level of anticoagulation, aiming at a concentration of iCa of less than 0.35 mmol/l (Table 1). Some facilities only use this treatment option in ICU patients with renal failure, even if they are hemodynamically stable. Training includes the recognition and early correction of a kinked catheter and the adequate rinsing of the filter before use since blood-air contact activates coagulation [20, 21]. <> PubMed ACCESS Historically, early dialysis circuits required the removal of blood from an artery with return of the "cleaned" blood to a vein.
