Abstract
Background and Aims
Critically ill patients in COVID-19 to the intensive care unit (ICU) may develop multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, with some requiring extracorporeal organ support. This study aimed to assess the effects of combined CytoSorb hemoperfusion (HP) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) on the improvement of the multiorgan failure of patients with COVID-19.
Methods
Fifty-six patients hospitalized in the ICU with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 were included in this quasi-experimental study. All the patients had acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). They were treated with 1–4 sessions of HP therapy.
Results
Serum Interleukin-6 (IL6), C-reactive protein (CRP), d-dimer, procalcitonin (PCT), Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), ferritin, and bilirubin levels were decreased, while the concentration of albumin was significantly increased after HP/CRRT (p < 0.05). No significant differences were observed in O2 saturation (Sao2) and creatinine levels.
Conclusion
Combined HP and CRRT hold promise as a potential intervention for severe COVID-19 cases with multiple organ dysfunction, leading to improved clinical outcomes.
