Brief Summary
Observational comparative effectiveness study of individual patient data using interrupted time series analysis techniques of linked data sources to establish clinical and health economic effects of moving from systemic heparin anticoagulation to regional citrate anticoagulation during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for patients treated on non-specialist Intensive Care Units (ICUs) in England and Wales.
