It was reported that delta p began increasing and the circuit was changed approximately 36 hours after initiation of therapy.
Initiated support (b)(6) 2016 at 20:40, flow ~400 to patient (~500 through mo) at 1600-1800 rpms, transmembrane pressure ~22.
Transmembrane pressure at 12 hrs ~22, at 24 hrs ~27, at 30 hrs ~32, then 39, 38, 37, 69, 67, and 63 each hr after the (b)(6).
After the membrane change out the transmembrane pressure has been between 16-18 at the same flow and rpm ranges, for over 30 hrs with similar lab values.
Acts ranged from 102-196 (very common values, have many runs with 100-120 acts for >16hrs without complications) during the first 11 hrs; 213-267 for the next 8 hr shift; 158-210 for the 3rd shift, at this point no delta p issues.
202-231 during the 4th shift; 216-354 during the 5th shift, during which the delta p began increasing and the circuit was changed at ~9:30.
(b)(6) 2016, roughly 36+ hours after initiation.
Anti xa levels (target 0.
4-0.
6) were: 0.
53, 0.
67, & 0.
6 for day one, 0.
88 & 0.
49 for day two (when delta p increased).
Ptt (target 60-90) was 96, 89 & 99 for day one, 76 & 60 for day two (delta p incr).
Teg kaolin:kaolin heparinase r ratio (target 3-5) was 2.
4:1 on the first morning & 6 to 1 on the morning of the delta p increase & required change-out.
Anti-thrombin levels were 124-126 during this time frame.
Platelet count was 105, 104 & 94 for day one, 82 & 83 for day two.
Fibrinogen level was 207, 208 & 206 for day one, 177 & 173 for day two.
Dark clot or debris on the inlet side beyond the sparger plate was seen after rinsing.
(b)(4).
