ABSTRACT
Objective:
To evaluate the effect and safety of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration(CVVH) in the treatment of multiple organ failure(MOF) in senile patients.Methods:
Sixteen patients with multiple organ failure,aged over 80 years,were divided into a survival group,who lived more than 20 days,and a non-survival group,less than 20 days after CVVH,and observed for such clinical indexes as of renal function,K+and blood gas analysis,APACHEⅡ scores and complications.Results:
After CVVH,eleven of the patients survived for over 20 days,with 1 case up to 3 years.CVVH effected a significant improvement in BUN,Scr,K+and blood gas as well as a marked reduction in complications.APACHE Ⅱ scores decreased significantly after CVVH in the survival group though not in the non-survival group,as compared with those before CVVH,which were significantly lower in the former than in the latter.Conclusion:
CVVH is a safe,effective and well-tolerated method for the treatment of MOF in senile patients.Patients with higher APACHEⅡscores have a poor prognosis.
