ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of coupled plasma filtration adsorption (CPFA) on plasma cytokines:TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,cellular immunity,blood lactate acid concentration,heart rate,respiration rate,oxygenation index,hemodynamics,blood cells counts,and prognosis in patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndromes (MODS).Methods This was a prospective,randomized clinical trial in 45 patients diagnosed as MODS.Patients were randomly assigned to hemoperfution with resin adsorption (HP) + continuous venous-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) group,CPFA group and CVVH group.The general clinical data,APACHE Ⅱ score,number of failure organ and previous mentioned biomarkers were documented.Blood samples were collected before and after blood filtration with any one of these procedures.The plasma samples were isolated and stored with frozen at-60 ℃.Data were statistically analyzed with SPSS 13.0 version software.Results In CPFA group,plasma cytokines,TNF-α、IL-1β、IL-6,decreased markedly after plasma adsorption for two hours (P ＜ 0.01);and plasma concentrations of IL-6 were further descended after subsequent CVVH for 10 hours (P ＜ 0.05).In HP + CVVH group,plasma cytokines,TNF-α、IL-1β、IL-6,decreased markedly after HP (P ＜ 0.01),and plasma concentrations of IL-6 were further descended after subsequent CVVH for 10 hours (P ＜ 0.05).In CVVH group,plasma cytokines,TNF-α、IL-1β、IL-6,decreased after CVVH for 12 hours (P ＜ O.05).Blood lactate acid concentration,heart rate,respiration rate,oxygenation index,T-lymphocytes subgroups (CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 +,CD4 +/CD8 + ratio),clinical symptoms were improved and dose of vasoactive agent was reduced in the patients of three groups without differences among them.The counts of red blood cells,white blood cells and platelets after CPFA and CVVH showed no significant changes.There was no significant difference in blood cell counts between CPFA and CVVH groups.After HP + CVVH,there was a trend of decrease in platelet count (P ＜ 0.05).Platelet counts were significanfly higher in patients treated with CPFA and CVVH group than those in patients treated with HP + CVVH group (P ＜ 0.05).There were 6 patients died in HP + CVVH group,6 patients died in CPFA group and 5 patients died in CVVH group within 28days.Conclusions The comparison of efficacy of blood filtration among 3 modalities of HP + CVVH,CPFA and CVVH showed CPFA had higher capacity of Inflammatory medium scavenging than CVVH,and had less damage effect on blood visible component,especially on platelet compared with HP + CVVH.CPFA was an effective and safety modality in the treatment of the patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of continuous venous-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) and continuous venous-venous hemodialysis (CVVHD) on patients with lactic acidosis.Methods A total of 137 cases with lactic acidosis were included in this prospective randomized control study.lhe patients were collected from the University of Hong Kong-shenzhen Hospitall and the First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College from April 2009 to April 2013.Inclusion criteria were patients with lactic acidosis.Exclusion criteria were patients with end-stage malignancy or terminal stage of illnesses.The patients were randomly divided into two groups:CVVH group and CVVHD group,and patients of both group were intervened with conventional treatments as well.For each group,the lactic acid and blood gas analysis were tested before CRRT,and at 4 hours,8 hours,12 hours,24 hours,and 48 hours of CRRT.The patients' mortality and length of ICU stay time were analysed and recorded.Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 15.0software.Results When the length of time for treatment was the same,the efficacy between CVVH group and CVVHD group showed no difference in blood lactic acid level [4 h:(11.65 ± 3.39) mmol/L vs.(11.12±2.65) mmol/L; 8 h:(8.78±2.35) mmol/L vs.(8.59±2.09) mmol/L; 12 h:(6.91 ±1.67)mmol/Lvs.(6.74±1.76) mmol/L;24h:(1.66±0.39) mmol/Lvs.(1.51±0.30) mmol/L; 48 h:(0.95 ±0.24) mmol/L vs.(0.66 ±0.20) mmol/L,P ＞ 0.05) and pH value [4 h:(6.93 ±0.14) vs.(7.05±0.09);8h:(7.04±0.10)vs.(7.12±0.05); 12h:(7.13±0.07)vs.(7.20±0.04);24h:(7.30±0.03) vs.(7.38±0.04); 48h:(7.41 ±0.03) vs.(7.46±0.02),P＞ 0.05].There are also no difference in the hospital mortality (11.4％ vs.10.4％,P=0.854) and length ofICU stay time [(9.5 ±2.4) d vs.(8.8 ± 2.9) d,P =0.329].Conclusions Both CVVH and CVVHD can effectively correct hyperlactemia,enhance acid-base balance,contributing no differences in length of ICU stay time and patients' hospital mortality.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of blood hemoperfusion with resin adsorption connected in series to continuous veno-venous hemofiltration ( HP + CVVH) on plasma cytokines such as TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6 as well as cellular immunity and prognosis of patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndromes (MODS). Methods It was a prospective,randomized clinical trial.A total of 30 patients diagnosed as MODS were randomly (random number) divided into routine treatment + HP + CVVH group (treatment group) and routine treatment + CVVH group (control group).In treatment group,patients received blood hemoperfusion with resin adsorption for 2 hours,and then CVVH for 10 hours every day for 3days.In control group,patients received CVVH for 12 hours every day for 3 days.The plasma samples of patients in treatment group were obtained 0 h,2 h,12 h,24 h,26 h,36 h,48 h,50 h,60 h,5 days,7 days and 10 days after renal replacement therapy.The plasma samples of patients in control group were obtained 0 h,12 h,24 h,36 h,48 h,60 h,5 days,7 days and 10 days after renal replacement therapy.All of these patients were monitored with APACHE Ⅱ score,T-lymphocytes subpopulations,blood lactate acid concentration,heart rate,respiration rate and oxygenation index. Results Plasma levels of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 decreased dramatically after HP (P ＜ 0.01 ) and T-lymphocytes subpopulations CD3+,CD4 +,CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + increased after both HP + CVVH and CVVH.The differences in plasma levels of TNF-α,IL-1βand IL-6 of patients between two groups were not noticeably obvious at the intervals of 12 h,36 h,and 50 h after renal replacement therapy. But on the 5 th day after renal replacement therapy,plasma levels of TNF-α,IL-1βand IL-6 of patients in HP + CVVH group were lower than those in control group (P ＜ 0. 05 ).There were 5 fatal patients in HP + CVVH group and 6 patients died off in CVVH group during 28 days after treatment.Conclusions Both HP + CVVH and CVVH could lower the levels of plasma TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6,and improve cellular immunity and clinical symptoms as well as signs.Compared with CVVH,plasma levels of TNF-α,IL- 1β and IL-6 were lower on the 5th day and increase rate of 28-day survival in HP + CVVH group.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe continuous venous-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) for treatments and cares of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). Methods From August 2004 to August 2006, 15 cases with SAP were in conventional treatment (the control group), from September 2006 to August 2010, 20 cases with SAP were nursed with CVVH(the observation group). We surveyed patients' vital signs (including body temperature, heart rate, breathing and blood pressure),mental symptoms, abdominal signs and monitored liver and kidney functions. Additionally we executed APACHE Ⅱ scores. We analyzed them retrospectively. Results The afore - mentioned indexes of two groups were significant in statistics, the observation group had lower incidence of MODS、MOF than the control group after 10 days caring. Conclusions The CVVH could correct systemic inflammatory reaction of SAP and prevent complications. Standard technical operation and intensive nursing can ensure smooth process of CVVH and decrease complications caused by CVVH.
