Regiocit
DrugRegiocit can be used as a replacement fluid for CRRT with RCA. It will be used in pre-dilution mode only.
At least 200 mL of post-replacement solution is recommended to minimize clotting in the de-aeration chamber. A replacement/dialysate solution with 22 to 26 mEq/L bicarbonate buffer is advised as the first choice. A higher concentration of bicarbonate may be required in severe cases of acidosis. The use of a non-calcium-containing dialysate or replacement fluid is advised. The rate of administration depends on the targeted citrate dose and the prescribed flow rate. The pre-filter infusion rate of Regiocit will be indexed to the blood flow rate (BFR) to achieve a target blood citrate concentration of 3 to 4 mmol/L. A BFR between 100 to 180 mL/min will be advised; a lower BFR can minimize patient citrate exposure, particularly in patients with lower body weight.
