Objective  To investigate the effects and feasibility of regional citrate anticoagulation continuous venous-venous hemodialysis(RCA-CVVHD) in acute hepatic & kidney injury after cardiovascular surgery. Methods  Ten patients with acute kidney injury combined with acute hepatic injury after cardiovascular surgery were involved in this study. There were 5 males and 5 females at age of 35-69(58.2±12.7) years. All of them were treated by RCA-CVVHD. Blood samples were collected before treatment, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after treatment. Results  There was no statistical difference between post- and pre-treatment regarding with pH value (7.47±0.12 vs. 7.50±0.06 vs. 7.48±0.04 vs. 7.48±0.03 vs. 7.45±0.05, P>0.05) or BE value (0.91±9.97 mmol/L vs. 2.36±3.92 mmol/L vs. –0.22±3.09 mmol/L vs. 1.87±3.58 mmol/L vs. –1.05±1.12 mmol/L, P>0.05). There was a statistical difference in iCa (1.09±0.09 mmol/L vs. 1.15±0.08 mmol/L vs. 1.17±0.08 mmol/L vs. 1.24±0.09 mmol/L vs. 1.16±0.06 mmol/L), Na+ (149.44±6.84 mmol/L vs. 144.33±3.35 mmol/L vs. 143.13±3.52 mmol/L vs.141.25±5.52 mmol/L vs. 136.71±4.92 mmol/L), and tCa/iCa (2.07±0.11 vs. 2.10±1.12 vs. 2.17±0.69 vs. 2.23±1.05 vs. 2.30±0.11), respectively. Conclusion  RCA-CVVHD used in patients with acute hepatic impairment is safe and feasible.
