PG - 1327-34 LID - 10.1093/ndt/gfv347 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Although citrate dialysate (CiDi) is regarded to be safe, dialysis modalities using higher dialysate volumes, like haemodiafiltration (HDF), may expose patients to higher citrate load and thus increase the risk of complications. We investigated the residual risk of CiDi compared with standard dialysate (StDi) in patients on different dialysis modalities and its effect on dialysis dose. METHODS: In a multicentre randomized crossover study, 92 dialysis patients (HDF post-dilution: n = 44, HDF pre-dilution: n = 26, haemodialysis: n = 25) were treated for 4 weeks with each dialysate (StDi and CiDi). Hypocalcaemia (ionized calcium /=7.55), post-treatment bicarbonate >/=32 mmol/L, pre-treatment bicarbonate >/=27 mmol/L, intra-dialytic events (IEs) and adverse events (AEs) between dialysis sessions were investigated as primary end points. The secondary objective was dialysis efficacy, i.e. dose and removal ratios of urea, creatinine, phosphate and beta-2-microglobulin. RESULTS: Post-dialysis overcorrection of bicarbonate (>32 mmol/L) was less frequent with CiDi (P = 0.008). Other predefined calcium and acid-base disturbances did not vary. There was no significant difference in IE. However, more patients developed AEs such as fatigue, muscle spasms or pain using CiDi (StDi: 41 versus CiDi: 55 patients, P = 0.02), particularly in the first 2 weeks of exposure. Dialysis efficacy was comparable with both dialysates. CONCLUSIONS: It can be confirmed that CiDi is not associated with the development of severe calcium and acid-base disorders, even when dialysis modalities with higher citrate loads are used. However, a refinement of the CiDi composition to minimize AEs is necessary. CI - (c) The Author 2015. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of ERA-EDTA. All rights reserved.
