NCT02486614

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of regional citrate anti-coagulation on different pathways of the coagulation system in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. This will form the basis for future studies where the investigators plan to focus on patients with premature circuit clotting despite optimal post-filtrate ionised calcium parameters.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes of parameters of coagulability during Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) with citrate anticoagulation

    Changes of coagulation parameters (Full Blood Count, prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time ratio, fibrinogen, d-dimer, thrombin generation, clot lysis and platelet function analysis) during citrate-based CRRT

    72 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Determination of baseline coagulation status before initiation of citrate-based CRRT

    Before initiation of CRRT

Study Population

adults with acute kidney injury requiring citrate based continuous renal replacement therapy

You may qualify if:

  • acute kidney injury treated with citrate based continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT)
  • age \>18 years.
  • expected to require \>72 hours of CRRT.

You may not qualify if:

  • Known preexisting clotting tendency
  • Known preexisting bleeding tendency
  • Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC)
  • Prior transfusion of any blood product in the 24 hours before enrolment
  • Active bleeding (ie. needing blood transfusion) at time of enrolment
  • Haemoglobin at time of enrolment \<75g/L
  • Haematocrit at time of enrolment \>0.55
  • Patient would refuse Red Blood Cell transfusion (for example Jehova's Witness).
  • Platelet count at time of enrolment \<100x103/µL
  • Treatment with any anticoagulant or antiplatelet agent at time of enrolment or within 7 days of enrolment with the exception of heparin or low molecular weight heparin for DVT prophylaxis.
  • Intravenous heparin exposure within 4 hours of commencing citrate anticoagulation.
  • Malnourished: BMI \<18.5kg/m2 or unplanned weight loss \>10% actual body weight (ABW) in preceding 6 months or BMI \<20kg/m2 and unplanned weight loss \>5% ABW in preceding 6 months.
  • CRRT prescribed for an indication other than AKI (for example poisoning).
