ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate the impact of high-dose versus conventional-dose continuous hemodiafiltration on treatment efficacy and inflammatory markers in athletes with severe pancreatitis. Methods: A total of 112 athletes with severe pancreatitis, admitted to our hospital from May 2019 to August 2021, were randomly divided into two groups. The control group received conventional-dose continuous hemodiafiltration, while the study group was treated with high-dose continuous hemodiafiltration. Results: The clinical efficacy in the high-dose group was significantly better than the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the high-dose group showed significant improvements in clinical indicators, with lower levels of CRP, TNF-α, PCT, AMY, and Scr compared to the control group (P<0.05). Serum phosphorus, albumin, and cholesterol levels improved more in the high-dose group post-treatment (P<0.05). Vital signs such as body temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate also showed greater improvement in the high-dose group, with significant differences noted compared to the control group (P<0.05). Both groups experienced a significant decrease in APACHE II scores post-treatment. Conclusion: High-dose continuous hemodiafiltration is more effective in treating severe pancreatitis in athletes, enhancing clinical indicators and reducing inflammatory markers. This treatment approach also positively impacts vital blood parameters, contributing to a quicker recovery and restoration of physical functions in athletes with severe pancreatitis (AU)
