Excerpt
Data on significance of systemic gain of citrate during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) are missing. Direct citrate measurements are scarcely available. The quantification using a difference of unmeasured anions (UA) on the filter and the method using correlation between concentration of citrate (Cf) in effluent to the proportion of citrate flow to blood flow (Qc/Qb) were compared with the control exact methods. …
