Overview

Retrospective cohort study identifies predictors of unplanned continuous renal replacement therapy discontinuation in critically ill patients, highlighting the role of anticoagulation protocols.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the risk factors and temporal patterns associated with unplanned continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) discontinuation in critically ill patients to guide nursing interventions.
  • Retrospective cohort study of 3128 CRRT sessions conducted at a tertiary hospital in China between January and December 2025.
  • Univariate analysis and binary logistic regression were used to identify independent predictors of unplanned discontinuation.
  • Descriptive time-series analysis with 7-day moving average smoothing evaluated temporal variations across the study period.
  • Unplanned discontinuation occurred in 77 of 3128 CRRT sessions (2.46%), with elevated circuit pressure serving as the leading cause.
  • Treatment duration (p < 0.001) and net ultrafiltration rate (p = 0.032) were independent predictors of unplanned treatment discontinuation.
  • Compared with no anticoagulation, nafamostat mesylate was associated with lower odds of unplanned discontinuation (p = 0.013), whereas sodium citrate was associated with higher odds (p = 0.004).
