Abstract
Regional citrate anticoagulation use in intermittent hemodialysis is limited by the increased risk of metabolic complications due to faster solute exchanges than with continuous renal replacement therapies. Several simplifications have been proposed. The objective of this study was to validate a mathematical model of hemodialysis anticoagulated with citrate that was then used to evaluate different prescription scenarios on anticoagulant effectiveness (free calcium concentration in dialysis filter) and calcium balance. A study was conducted in hemodialyzed patients with a citrate infusion into the arterial line and a 1.25 mmol/L calcium dialysate. Calcium and citrate concentrations were measured upstream and downstream of the citrate infusion site and in the venous line. The values measured in the venous lines were compared with those predicted by the model using Bland and Altman diagrams. The model was then used with 22 patients to make simulations. The model can predict the concentration of free calcium, bound to citrate or albumin, accurately. Irrespective of the prescription scenario a decrease in free calcium below 0.4 mmol/L was obtained only in a fraction of the dialysis filter. A zero or slightly negative calcium balance was observed, and should be taken into account in case of prolonged use.
