Having a night at #KidneyBallDetroit

Makes sense that if you go to the Kidney Ball, you will run into the Joel M. Topf, MD FACP! National Kidney Foundation

Completely agree. Whether we call it citrate “toxicity”, “lock” or just “accumulation”, this is a real risk with citrate protocols. Most dangerous potential aspect to me is acute drop in pt iCa near initiation (ie. Initial bolus of citrate with poor endogenous clearance).

Key to avoiding citrate tox is understanding citrate kinetics during CKRT. If endogenous clearance intact (no liver failure/severe shock), almost never an issue. But if suspect impaired endogenous clearance, protocol needs to be adjusted to increase filter citrate extraction.

Explained in much better detail by my colleagues, using our own “shock” protocol for citrate anticoag in CKRT: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35373034/
