This article will focus attention on the components and design of the CRRT circuit, identifying strategies in the literature which may promote circuit life. sepsis mediators, myoglobin ) - Lipid rich blood (Propofol) Results in: - Impairs permeability - Reduced sieving coefficient - Metabolic alkalosis Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is commonly used in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury and is the preferred technique for most intensivists. Czarnecki:Alexion: Consultancy; Reata: Consultancy. Such early artificial kidney failures are typically related to two processes: circuit clotting and membrane clogging. doi: 10.1002/rth2.12798.

Low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) exhibit several advantages, including lower incidence of HIT [48], lower AT affinity, less platelet and polymorphonuclear cell activation, less inactivation by platelet factor-4 (PF-4), higher and more constant bioavailability, and lack of metabolic side effects [47, 49, 50]. 2007, 22: 471-476. Another important determinant of catheter flow is the patient's circulation. Return to Training & Resources APM2115 Rev. According to Poisseuille's law, flow through a catheter is related to the fourth power of radius and inversely related to length, indicating that a thick (13 to 14 French) and short catheter is preferable. Systemic anticoagulation interferes with plasmatic coagulation, platelet activation, or both and should be kept at a low dose to mitigate bleeding complications. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), which runs slowly but continuously over 24 h, is more likely to be used than intermittent RRT in the ICU. volume11, Articlenumber:218 (2007) These presumed abnormalities in hemostasis have been associated with filter clotting during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). 10.1159/000083938. Increased clotting of CRRT hemofilter leads to reduced time on CRRT and blood loss, worsening the anemia of critical illness and increasing need for blood transfusion.7,8 However, it is unknown if COVID-19 patients with AKI requiring CRRT have increased clotting of CRRT hemofilter compared to patients with septic shock with AKI requiring . Sixty-five patients were analyzed, including 17 using an anti-factor Xa protocol to guide systemic heparin dosing. 10.1097/01.CCM.0000084871.76568.E6.

Severe clotting was defined as >2 filter losses in 48 hours or one filter loss <8 hours into CRRT. 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. Low-dose anticoagulation is usually sufficient to keep the filter patent and mitigates the increased risk of bleeding associated with full anticoagulation.

Slow reaction to pump alarms contributes to stasis of flow and early filter clotting. Clogging during CRRT worsens resistance toblood flow through filter and thus leads toincrease infilter pressure drop. Filter size may play a role and larger surfaces may be of relevance for filter survival and solute clearance when CVVHD is applied. 10.1111/j.1523-1755.2005.00342.x.

Conclusions: The rate of CRRT filter loss is high in COVID-19 infection. 2004, 61: 134-143. In a recent retrospective case control study in patients with septic shock undergoing CRRT with heparin, supplementation of AT to keep plasma concentration above 70% increased circuit survival time [42]. Monitoring with activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) is still the best option. Nephrol Dial Transplant. In a non-randomized study in patients on CRRT, AT deficiency (less than 60%) was associated with early filter clotting, whereas supplementation increased circuit life [41]. The interpretation of studies evaluating circuit life in CRRT, however, is hampered by the complexity and interplay of the factors mentioned. None of the proposed systems can attain perfect acid-base control using one standard citrate, replacement, or dialysis solution. 2000, 28: 421-425. Clin Chem Lab Med.

Major drawbacks for routine use are their high costs and hypotension due to vasodilatation, but the half-life of the vasodilatory effect is as short as 2 minutes.

Randomized studies in critically ill patients on CRRT which evaluate the effect of catheter site or design on circuit flow and survival are not available. Given these limitations, a possible scheme for UFH consists of a bolus of 30 IU/kg followed by an initial rate of 5 to 10 IU/kg per hour in patients with normal coagulation.

Both PGE1 and PGI2 have been investigated in CRRT, alone or in combination with heparins.

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.
