A Comparison of the Anticoagulation Efficacy and Safety of Epoprostenol to Heparin and Citrate in Children Receiving Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy.
Introduction: Anticoagulants are used in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) to prolong filter life. There are no prior investigations directly comparing epoprostenol to more commonly used forms of anticoagulation in children. Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of epoprostenol as compared to heparin and citrate anticoagulation in a pediatric cohort.
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of all patients <18 years of age admitted to an academic quaternary care children's hospital from 2017-2022 who received epoprostenol, heparin, or citrate exclusively for CRRT anticoagulation. Efficacy was evaluated by comparing the hours to the first unintended filter change and the ratio of filters used to CRRT days. Safety was assessed by evaluating changes in platelet count and vasoactive-ionotropic score (VIS).
Results: Of 101 patients, 44 received epoprostenol (43.6%), 38 received heparin (37.6%), and 19 received citrate (18.8%). The first filter change was more commonly planned in patients receiving anticoagulation with epoprostenol (43%) as compared to citrate (11%) or heparin (29%) (p = 0.034). Of those patients where the first filter change was unintended (n = 33), there were greater median hours until the filter was replaced in those receiving epoprostenol (29) when compared to citrate (21) (p = 0.002) or heparin (18) (p = 0.003). There was a smaller median ratio of filters used to days on therapy in the patients that received epoprostenol (0.53) when compared to citrate (1) (p = 0.003) or heparin (0.75) (p = 0.001). For those receiving epoprostenol, there was no significant decrease in platelet count when comparing values prior to CRRT initiation through 7 days of therapy. There was no significant difference in VIS when comparing values prior to CRRT initiation through the first 2 days of CRRT.
Conclusions: Epoprostenol-based anticoagulation is effective when compared to other anticoagulation strategies used in pediatric CRRT with a favorable side effect profile.
期刊介绍：
Practical information on hemodialysis, hemofiltration, peritoneal dialysis and apheresis is featured in this journal. Recognizing the critical importance of equipment and procedures, particular emphasis has been placed on reports, drawn from a wide range of fields, describing technical advances and improvements in methodology. Papers reflect the search for cost-effective solutions which increase not only patient survival but also patient comfort and disease improvement through prevention or correction of undesirable effects. Advances in vascular access and blood anticoagulation, problems associated with exposure of blood to foreign surfaces and acute-care nephrology, including continuous therapies, also receive attention. Nephrologists, internists, intensivists and hospital staff involved in dialysis, apheresis and immunoadsorption for acute and chronic solid organ failure will find this journal useful and informative. ''Blood Purification'' also serves as a platform for multidisciplinary experiences involving nephrologists, cardiologists and critical care physicians in order to expand the level of interaction between different disciplines and specialities.
