ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Correcting hyponatremia too quickly can lead to osmotic demyelination syndrome. During citrate dialysis, a significant sodium load is brought to the prefilter. We reviewed the impact of this sodium load on the evolution of sodium levels in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy with citrate anticoagulation. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
The medical records of 5 patients with hyponatremia who received dialysis with citrate anticoagulation, over a 10-year period, were reviewed. The sodium of the dialysate and of the reinjection fluid was adapted according to the serum sodium level recommended by the guidelines of the time. Data from the first 24 h after initiation of dialysis was evaluated.RESULTS:
The difference in serum sodium levels between day 1 and day 2 was statistically significant, with a rise of 7.8 ± 3.7 mmol/L.DISCUSSION:
The mean serum sodium increase in our series of patients did not exceed the increase of 10-12 mEq/L/day permitted by the guidelines. The excess sodium was absorbed by the filter.CONCLUSION:
In this small series of patients, with adjustment of the sodium concentration of dialysate and reinjection fluid, the use of citrate was found to be safe.Palavras-chave
