    ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate microcirculation over 24 h renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in critically ill patients.MethodsWe conducted a single-center, prospective, observational study, measuring microcirculation parameters, monitored by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) before hemodiafiltration onset (H0), and at six (H6) and 24 h (H24) during CRRT in critically ill patients. Serum Cystatin C (sCysC) and soluble (s)E-selectin levels were measured at the same time points. Twenty-eight patients [19 men (68%)] were included in the study.ResultsTissue oxygen saturation (StO2, %) [76.5 ± 12.5 (H0) vs 75 ± 11 (H6) vs 70 ± 16 (H24), p = 0.04], reperfusion rate, indicating endothelial function (EF, %/sec) [2.25 ± 1.44 (H0) vs 2.1 ± 1.8 (H6) vs 1.6 ± 1.4 (H24), p = 0.02] and sCysC (mg/L) [2.7 ± 0.8 (H0) vs 2.2 ± 0.6 (H6) vs 1.8 ± 0.8 (H24), p < 0.0001] significantly decreased within the 24 h CRRT. Change of EF positively correlated with changes of sCysC within 24 h CRRT (r = 0.464, p = 0.013) while in patients with diabetes the change of StO2 correlated with dose (r = − 0.8, p = 0.01). No correlation existed between hemoglobin and temperature changes with the deteriorated microcirculation indices. sE-Selectin levels in serum were elevated; no difference was established over the 24 h CRRT period. A strong correlation existed between the sE-Selectin concentration change at H6 and H24 and the mean arterial pressure change in the same period (r = 0.77, p < 0.001).ConclusionsDuring the first 24 h of CRRT implementation in critically ill patients, deterioration of microcirculation parameters was noted. Microcirculatory alterations correlated with sCysC changes and with dose in patients with diabetes.
