Abstract
Application of extracorporeal blood purification in children is increasing with the improvement of technology and the broadening of indications in critically ill patients. Furthermore, novel devices are being made available with a miniaturized design to be applicable to pediatric machines and circuits. Current literature in the pediatric setting is essentially based on case series and observational studies. Novel prospective uncontrolled databases are underway, and the interest is growing in children, since the potential indications for pediatric sepsis and other inflammatory conditions might rely on the enhanced mediator clearance warranted by these techniques. This review will describe the application of hemadsorption in children, the available cartridges, the clinical results available in the pediatric setting, and the potential future uses.
期刊介绍:
The speed of developments in nephrology has been fueled by the promise that new findings may improve the care of patients suffering from renal disease. Participating in these rapid advances, this series has released an exceptional number of volumes that explore problems of immediate importance for clinical nephrology. Focus ranges from discussion of innovative treatment strategies to critical evaluations of investigative methodology. The value of regularly consolidating the newest findings and theories is enhanced through the inclusion of extensive bibliographies which make each volume a reference work deserving careful study.
