Summary

Prospective observational study of all consecutive cardio-vascular surgical patients treated with post-dilution hemofiltration with regional citrate anticoagulation as first-choice anticoagulation method. The filter life-span was assessed in the context of postoperative cardiac surgical antithrombotic prophylaxis. Reasons for termination of hemofiltration sessions were assessed. The second aim of this study was to assess the influence ACD-A based anticoagulation protocol on acid-base and ion homeostasis in cardiac surgical patients with acute renal failure.

PROCEDURE

Hemofiltration with regional citrate anticoagulation

To reduce risk of metabolic alkalosis during hemofiltration treatment, ACD-A citrate solution was proposed instead of most commonly used trisodium citrate solution and relatively low target citrate concentration (2.8 mmol/L) was adopted. In case of pH increase above 7.5 or bicarbonate concentration above 40 mmol/L filtrate flow was decreased from initial 35 ml/kg/hour down to 25 ml/kg/hour which reduced bicarbonate delivery by 25%. If metabolic alkalosis persisted, the second step involved reduction of blood flow from initial 5 times down to 4 times filtrate flow, which reduced citrate flow by the same factor.
