Risks and benefits of citrate anticoagulation for continuous renal replacement therapy

Abstract: A B S T R A C THeparin, despite its significant side-effects, is the most commonly used anticoagulant for continuous renal replacement therapy in critical care setting. In recent years, citrate has gained much popularity by improving continuous renal replacement therapy circuit survival and decreasing blood transfusion requirements. However, its complex metabolic consequences warrant modification in the design of the citrate-based continuous renal replacement therapy protocol. With thorough understanding of th… Show more

“…Citrate is a well-known alternative anticoagulant for CRRT, and there was a significant reduction in the incidence of bleeding complications when citrate was used (risk ratio, 0.24; p = 0.02) (14). However, citrate may have side effects such as hypocalcemia and metabolic alkalosis (15). Additionally, most of the citrate anticoagulation methods require calcium administration to maintain systemic serum ionized calcium concentration in an appropriate range.…”

“…Due to osmotic effects, a reduced platelet and erythrocyte volume in citrate anti-coagulated blood samples is observed which is not the case with EDTA anticoagulated blood [19]. In addition to laboratory procedures, citrate anticoagulation is also used in renal replacement therapy [45].…”

“…Calcium replacement was provided by either calcium gluconate or calcium chloride solution infusion and was titrated to achieve a systemic ionized calcium (iCa) level of 1–1.2 mmol/L with postfilter iCa level of 0.25–0.3 mmol/L. [ 23 ] The overall fluid withdrawal rate was adjusted to achieve the desired fluid balance at the discretion of physician-in-charge. Each patient received at least one session of HCO treatment and further treatment sessions were conducted based on the clinician's decision.…”
