How-to Calculate the Filtration Fraction (FF) in CKRT
 • The FF is the ratio of fluid being REMOVED from the filter to the fluid ENTERING the filter
 • The target FF to reduce the risk of filter clotting is < 20-25%
 • Dialysate (in CVVHD or CVVHDF) does NOT affect the FF

FF = Fluid removed from the filter / Fluid entering the filter
     = Ultrafiltration (ml/hr) / (Pre-Filter RF+ Plasma Flow Rate (ml/hr))
