Circuit survival with citrate was usually improved (summarized in [9]) [93], sometimes comparable [24, 84, 95], and in some studies shorter than with heparin [89, 94]. Results: Sixty-five patients were analyzed, with 17 using the anti-factor Xa protocol to guide systemic heparin dosing whereas 48 were treated with standard of care anticoagulation dosed by PTT . The best anticoagulation strategy for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in such patients is still under debate. Severe clotting was defined as >2 filter losses in 48 hours or one filter loss <8 hours into CRRT.

Higher blood flows give more flow limitation and more frequent stasis of blood flow. 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 ]. Non-anticoagulation measures include optimization of vascular access (inner diameter, pattern of flow, and position), CRRT settings (partial predilution and individualized control of filtration fraction), and the training of nurses.

Citrate is partially removed by convection or diffusion and partially enters the systemic circulation, where iCa rises again due to the dilution of extracorporeal blood, the liberation of chelated calcium when citrate is metabolized, and the replacement of calcium. Flow through end holes is laminar, which is optimal, whereas flow through side holes is turbulent and even locally stagnant, contributing to early clotting. These presumed abnormalities in hemostasis have been associated with filter clotting during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). 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. 10.1046/j.1523-1755.2001.00809.x. However, thrombin activation has been observed even without detectable systemic activation of these systems [3, 4].
