Figure 1 Continuous venovenous hemodialysis (CVVHD) circuit diagram using 2% trisodium citrate as the regional anticoagulation. The 2% trisodium citrate is infused prefilter at an initial rate of 250 mL/h. Calcium gluconate (93mEq in 1L 5% dextrose) is infused systemically via a central venous line at initial rate of 60 mL/h. Dialysate (0.9% saline, KCl 3mmol/L, MgSO4 1mmol/L) is delivered at 1000 mL/h.
