Brief Summary

The aim of our study is to assess three anticoagulation strategies for intermittent hemodialysis(IHD) in patients at risk of hemorrhage. A registry of consecutive hemodialysis patients with high risk of hemorrhage was conducted at the Guangdong General Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medicine University or Guangzhou Hospital of Chinese Medicine, between Sep 10, 2017 and June 30th,2018. In this multi-center prospective and randomized study, participants were randomly divided into three groups during IHD according to different anticoagulation, including with regular saline flushes, one stage regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) and two-stage RCA.

Study Arms (3)

saline flushes

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

saline flushes with 250 mL were carried out every 30 min.

Drug: two stage regional citrate

one stage regional citrate

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

one stage regional citrate:4% trisodium citrate was infused at the arterial bubble trap at a rate according to the blood flow( 1.2 x blood flow)ml/h.

Drug: one stage regional citrate

two stage regional citrate

EXPERIMENTAL

two stage regional citrate:4% trisodium citrate was infused at the arterial bubble trap at a rate according to the blood flow(3/4 x 1.2 x blood flow)ml/h,and at the venous bubble trap at a rate according to the blood flow(1/4 x 1.2 x blood flow)ml/h.

Drug: two stage regional citrateDrug: one stage regional citrate

Interventions

4% trisodium citrate was infused at the arterial bubble trap at a rate according to the blood flow(3/4 x 1.2 x blood flow)ml/h,and at the venous bubble trap at a rate according to the blood flow(1/4 x 1.2 x blood flow)ml/h.
