2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Prismocitrate 18 is a continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) solution to be used as a renal replacement solution and as an anticoagulant to prevent blood clotting in the extracorporeal circuit. The delivery of CRRT therapy is provided by the PrisMax System which includes regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) software to facilitate citrate and calcium compensation prescription. The objectives of this study are: 1) to confirm the safety of Prismocitrate 18 in patients receiving CRRT using continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) or continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) and 2) to observe that the software and interface for the PrisMax System Version 3.x with calcium line accessory allows for implementation of regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) (citrate and calcium dosing) during CRRT with Prismocitrate 18 and intended prescription. The study period of the patient's CRRT will be up to 10 days.
The purpose of this research is to determine if an investigational new drug solution called Prismocitrate 18 lengthens extracorporeal circuit life in patients treated with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Patients who receive CRRT treatment with Prismocitrate 18 as the anticoagulant will be compared to patients who receive CRRT treatment with no anticoagulation.
