For this third lesson, we talk about the basic principles that guide CRRT therapy. These principles are the foundation for how our therapy works and enables us to mimic the job of the nephron. The 4 principles are, diffusion, ultrafiltration, convection, and adsorption. I go through, thoroughly explaining what each principle is and how it impacts the therapy we provide to our patients. Understanding this foundational information is essential in understanding the next lesson on the modes of CRRT therapy.

Hi, I am a clinical nurse educator in critical care in the UK. I thought all 3 videos on CRRT were great, I have worked with various CRRT machines but never felt confident explaining it to others and this will really help me during clinical teaching sessions. Thanks

Couple extra facts: Adsorption removes pro-inflammatory mediators and anti inflammatory mediators, as patients in states like sepsis the scale is overwhelmingly in favor of pro inflammatory mediators, crrt can help balance the scale to remove those pesky molecules. Also when thinking of molecule size a professor I had helped me think of it like this : Glucose has a molecular weight of 180 (like a man in pounds) albumin can have a mw of 65000 (think an 18 wheeler) , for size comparisons when thinking what is filtered and what is not by a normal kidney or crrt circuit

Great points Alex! And yes, adsorption is great for helping with septic patients. Awesome perspective on the molecular weight too. Thank you!

Not sure about North America but in the UK, we've got special sets for our Prismaflex filters that have high adsorption membranes - the oXiris set. It's exactly for this, removal of cytokines and endotoxins

Glad they are helpful for you Karen. It can be overwhelming sometimes for quite some time. Just stick with it, learn something new each day, focus on getting a system so you don't have to think about certain things, but don't be afraid to deviate from the plan to deal with something that comes up. You'll get there!

Thank you so much Ed. Im always watching your videos. I've been an ICU nurse for more than 4 years and in my previous hospital, we've been very dependent to Nephro nurses for CRRT. When I moved to UK recently, I was expected to do CRRT on my own and your videos are very timely as I try to refresh my knowledge on this. More power Ed. Can't wait for your upcoming videos.

Thanks Matt! I appreciate you watching the videos and so glad to hear that they are liked. One hospital I moonlighted at for a little bit would do a similar thing. They would call in a dialysis nurse to do filter changes and put up a new circuit. Even at night they would come in for that. I was astonished as everywhere else I had worked we would just do it all. Interesting how things are so different in some places.

Thank you for doing this videos❤️, so glad that you make these videos, it is a life saver. I’ve been working in icu and I’ve worked with these Prismaflex machines. I actually think it is a cute user friendly machine but to understand the concepts and troubleshooting is hard and intimidating at times, sometimes these machines have minds of their own. I absolutely love your simple explanation, it’s too the point but you have covered everything , I like how you used drawings to illustrate your point, that really helps me understand the concepts better and using analogies too. I’ve read a lot of manuals but the info is complicated, you make it easy to understand. Please continue making more videos of common equipment used in icu and troubleshooting tips🥰. And just out of curiosity, can I ask what is your background, are you a nurse or doctor?. I am just wondering as I really like your teaching style and hope to learn good skills like this when teaching newbies.

@JGPRAISINGOD 3 жыл бұрын

Excellent video. When you talked about convection I rewinded to ultrafiltration as I wasn't sure the difference. I see that they go hand in hand as convection is the movement of solutes dissolved within the solute across the membrane. Ultrafiltration is the movement of the fluid across the membrane due to osmotic or hydrostatic pressure and convection will therefore happen with that movement of fluid. Does that sound correct?

@ICUAdvantage 3 жыл бұрын

Yes you are 100% correct!! Convection requires the movement of water. The more movement we have the more "drag" we get of the solutes across the membrane. We drive this fluid movement through the pressure gradient. That said, you can use just enough ultrafiltration to remove fluid without significant solute drag, but typically it is the combination of all of this together, especially in CVVHDF that we use for maximum benefit for the patient.

@udaykumar-gd4zv Жыл бұрын

Great work ICU advantage, adding to you point, we can select CVVHDF so that we can change into any mode later if we want like CVVHD, CVVH, SCUF

So, I'm being told CRRT CVVHD causes Calcium Chelation, so we check the Ionized Calcium Q6-Q12H to replace, but the population is unique and it could be due to blood products. Multiple depts have reiterated that CRRT = low calcium. Is this correct or is it due to blood products, or bc it's technically like a transfusion process with blood under pressure? Thanks!

@ICUAdvantage 3 жыл бұрын

Are you running citrate anticoagulation? Citrate chelates calcium and is used as a local anticoagulant for the CRRT circuit. I do have another video talking about CRRT anticoagulation. It is the same citrate in blood products that does the same thing. I have not heard of, nor seen, CRRT without citrate causing issues with calcium levels.

@donm2759 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you that was awesome. So essentially the replacement fluid is the fluid we give the patient that is then used for convection or do we use the patients own fluid for convection and then replace? Sorry silly question but really want to understand. Thanks again.

@ICUAdvantage 3 жыл бұрын

Glad to hear you liked it! Great question. You've got it. By giving them fluid, this allows us to pull a larger volume, thus faster flow, back out, increasing that convection. If we didn't give them this fluid, we wouldn't be able to pull as much fluid from the patient.
