Amino acid clearances and daily losses in patients with acute renal failure treated by continuous arteriovenous hemodialysis.

abstract：:Calcium chloride is administered frequently to critically ill patients to improve cardiac output and BP. However, Ca has been implicated in the pathophysiology of shock and ischemic disorders. To test the hypothesis that Ca may be deleterious to shock outcome, we studied the effects of CaCl and Ca chelator (EGTA) infu...
