    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of continuous venous-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) combined with coupled plasma filtration adsorption (CPFA) in the management of systemic inflammation response syndrome (SIRS) complicated by acute renal failure (ARF). METHODS: Thirty patients with SIRS complicated by ARF (including 25 with severe acute pancreatitis, 2 with colonic perforation with infection, and 3 with acute infective endocarditis) were randomly divided into CVVH plus CPFA group (n=14) and CVVH alone group (n=16). The APACHE II score, mean arterial pressure, PaO2/FiO2, TNF-alpha and IL-10 were detected prior to or after the intervention. The feasibility and tolerance of CVVH plus CPFA and the therapy-related adverse reactions were evaluated. RESULTS: The two groups showed no significant differences in the baseline clinical characteristics (P>0.05). The mean arterial pressure and PaO2/FiO2 increased significantly after treatment as compared with the control (P<0.05), with TNF-alpha being reduced and IL-10 elevated. In CVVH plus CPFA group, APACHEII score improved significantly after 10 days (P<0.05). No therapy-related adverse reactions were noted, suggesting good tolerance of CVVH plus CPFA. CONCLUSION: CVVH combined with CPFA is an effective and safe method for improving the clinical outcome of patients with SIRS and ARF.
