Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Effect of regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) for CRRT in critically ill patients on filter life span and all cause 90-day mortality compared to systemic heparin anticoagulation for CRRT;Secondary Objective: Evaluation of the clinical impact of the intervention on - Length of ICU and hospital stay / 1 year all cause mortality - Renal replacement therapy - Safety of the intervention - Cost analysis of renal replacement therapy ;Primary end point(s): filter life span (hours) overall survival in a 90-day follow-up period (90-day all cause mortality);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: filter live span (hours) overall survival (days) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): • ICU length-of-stay and hospital length-of-stay • Duration of renal replacement therapy • Bleeding complications • Transfusion requirement • Rate of infection during primary ICU stay • Major adverse kidney events at day 28, 60, 90 and after 1 year • Complications of therapy during study treatment • Recovery of renal function and requirement for hemodialysis after day 28, 60, 90 and 1 year • SOFA Scores at day 1-14, 21 and 28 • 28-day, 60-day and 1-year all cause mortality • Selected laboratory parameters • Cost analysis of renal replacement therapy • Delivered and prescribed dose of CRRT • Adverse events Add-on study: • New Biomarkers of acute kidney injury and mediators modulating pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators will be analysed in the blood and urine collected in different centres ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: - from study inclusion up to end of continuous renal replacement therapy - from study inclusion up to end of intensive care therapy or day 28 - 60 days after study inclusion - 90 days after study inclusion - 1 year after study inclusion | — |
