Pediatric CRRTTerms and Nomenclature Timothy E. Bunchman
How does dialysis work? • Solute clearance is related to • Sieving coefficient • Molecular weight of the solute • Charge of the solute • Gradient across the membrane • This can be convective or diffusive
Solute Molecular Weight and clearance Solute (MW) Convective Coefficient Diffusion Coefficient Urea (60) 1.01 ± 0.05 1.01 ± 0.07 Creatinine (113) 1.00 ± 0.09 1.01 ± 0.06 Uric Acid (168) 1.01 ± 0.04 0.97 ± 0.04* Vancomycin (1448) 0.84 ± 0.10 0.74 ± 0.04** Cytokines (large) adsorbed minimal clearance *P<0.05 **P<0.01
Definitions and Terms • CVVH/CAVH • Convective clearance • Replacement Solutions • Physiologic sterile solution that is either infused pre filter (NA) or post filter (outside of NA) that infused at a set rate (Qr)

Definitions and Terms • CVVHD/CAVHD • Diffusive clearance • Dialysate • Physiologic sterile solution that is infused countercurrent to the blood flow rate (Qd)

Definitions and Terms • SCUF (surgeons can’t understand fluid) • Slow continuous ultrafiltration (UF) ultrafiltrate (water and solute) come across the membrane at a rate based upon TMP • Transmembrane pressure (TMP) • The pressure difference between the blood side and the ultrafiltrate side of the membrane • Greater the TMP the greater the UF rate

Adsorption • Concept when solute (e.g. plasma proteins) adhere or get adsorbed to a membrane • Commonly discussed with column plasma-adsorption or the “clearance” of cytokines during SIRS
