Hyperlactatemia, Lactate Kinetics and Prediction of Citrate Accumulation in Critically Ill Patients Undergoing Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy With Regional Citrate Anticoagulation

摘要

Objectives: Citrate accumulation is a major complication of regional citrate anticoagulation during continuous renal replacement therapy. We studied the prediction of citrate accumulation during continuous veno-venous hemodialysis with regional citrate anticoagulation by initial lactate concentrations and lactate kinetics.
