Regional citrate anticoagulation versus systemic heparin anticoagulation for continuous kidney replacement therapy in intensive care

<p><strong>Purpose</strong><br> Many intensive care units (ICUs) have transitioned from systemic heparin anticoagulation (SHA) to regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) for continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). We evaluated the clinical and health economic impacts of...

The estimated one-year incremental net monetary benefit per patient was £ − 2376 (95% CI £ − 3841–£ − 911), with an estimated likelihood of cost-effectiveness of <0.1%.<br><br> <strong>Conclusions</strong><br> Transition to RCA was associated with significant increases in healthcare resource use, without corresponding clinical benefit, and is highly unlikely to be cost-effective over a one-year time horizon.</p>
