  • Title: Treatment of combined renal failure and lactic acidosis by haemofiltration.
    Author: Barton IK, Hilton PJ, Treacher DF, Bradley RD.
    Journal: Clin Intensive Care; 1992 Dec; 3(5):196-8. PubMed ID: 10148241.
    Abstract:
    Twelve patients with renal failure and type A lactic acidosis were treated with haemofiltration during a 30-month period. The first three patients received only lactate-buffered replacement fluid and rapidly succumbed despite the infusion of large quantities of sodium bicarbonate. Bicarbonate-buffered replacement fluid was used for the remaining nine patients, of whom three survived. Haemofiltration with bicarbonate-buffered replacement fluid is an effective method of replacing renal function for this group of critically-ill patients.
