    Abstract:
    The 10-year study of etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic, treatment and prevention of the multiple organ failure syndrome (MOFS) after cardiovascular operations with artificial blood circulation was conducted in the SCS. 4383 patients, aged 16-75 years, were observed. Of them, MOFS was diagnosed in 206 (4.7%) patients. Extracorporal detoxication was used in 385 patients. When used in patients with complicated postoperative period, the extracorporal detoxication prevents MOFS and decreases lethality in 3 times (from 59.3 to 19.2%). The method is indicated to patients with MOFS severity estimated of 13.5 points and damage of 5-6 organ systems. Herewith the duration of veno-venous ultrahemodiafiltration should not exceed 80 hours and the number of sessions should not be more then 3.
