VGH CKRT Sodium Kinetics Tool (Nass) v1.0

Assumptions: CVVHDF (Na sieving ≈ 1). Dialysate is treated as post-dilution equivalent. Net fluid balance = 0. Time-course: Na(t) = Nass + (Na₀ − Nass)·e−kt, where k = K/Vd and K = Qe·Qp/(Qp + Qpre + Qpbp).

① Patient profile

Watson TBW formula
For males: TBW = 2.447 − 0.09516 × age + 0.1074 × height + 0.3362 × weight
For females: TBW = −2.097 + 0.1069 × height + 0.2466 × weight

② Blood flow

③ PBP

④ Replacement

⑤ Dialysate

⑥ IV infusion (post-circuit)
