The Effect of Nafamostat Mesilate in Prolonging Filter Patency With Patients on Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has been considered as an effective modality for renal replacement therapy in hemodynamically unstable patients within intensive care unit (ICU) except for the necessity of anticoagulation. The severity and peculiarities of ICU patients often make it equivocal to use anticoagulation. This is a prospective randomized controlled study to show the difference in filter life span and adverse event between HF1000 (nafamostat mesilate) group and M100 (heparin-free) group.

  • aPTT > 60 sec
  • PT-INR > 2.0

Treatment and study plan

Anticoagulation with nafamostat mesilate

Drug

Initial dose of nafamostat mesilate is 20mg/hr. Dosage is adjusted from 10mg to 30mg/hr according to patients' status. For priming, two vial of nafamostat mesilate was dissolved in 2mL of 5% glucose fluid, and then mixed with 1000mL of normal saline. After carefully removing air bubble from the circuit with the prepared fluid, nafamostat mesilate was dissolved with 15 mL of 5% glucose fluid and loaded in anticoagulation line with starting dose of 20mg/hr.
