Outcomes of extracorporeal blood purification with oXiris® membrane in critically ill patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis. J Crit Care 2024; 83:154844. [PMID: 38901069 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2024.154844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 04/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of the novel oXiris® membrane in critically ill adult patients. METHODS We systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL from inception to 01/06/2023 for relevant randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and non-randomised studies of intervention (NRSI). The primary outcome was overall mortality. Random effect meta-analyses were conducted in RevMan 5.4.1. Study quality was evaluated using Cochrane's risk of bias tool. (PROSPERO: CRD42023389198). RESULTS Ten studies (2 RCTs and 8 NRSIs) with 481 patients were included. None had low risk of bias. Treatment using oXiris® was associated with reduced overall mortality (RR 0.78, 95%CI 0.62-0.98; p = 0.03; 6 NRSI). One RCT reported 28-day mortality, finding no significant difference between groups. Besides, pooled NRSIs results showed significant reductions in SOFA scores, norepinephrine dosage, and several inflammatory biomarkers (C-reactive protein [CRP], lactate, and interleukin-6 [IL-6]) post oXiris® treatment. However, other clinical outcomes (ICU and hospital length of stay, mechanical ventilation duration) were similar between groups. CONCLUSION In critically ill patients, the use of oXiris® membrane was associated with reduced overall mortality, norepinephrine dosage, CRP, IL-6, lactate levels, along with improved organ function. However, the certainty of evidence was very low, necessitating high-quality RCTs to further evaluate its efficacy in this population.

Waalders N, van Lier D, Gerretsen J, Moran L, Stegmann KA, Twigger W, Blanco-Andujar C, Frodsham G, Kox M, Pickkers P. Preclinical and first-in-human safety studies on a novel magnetism-based haemofiltration method. Sci Rep 2024; 14:14077. [PMID: 38890397 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-64379-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Extracorporeal haemofiltration devices that selectively remove cytokines could represent an adjunctive treatment in inflammatory diseases. One such device is the "IL-6-Sieve", wherein magnetic Anti-IL-6 Beads are introduced into an extracorporeal circuit via a Bead Adapter and then removed along with any surface-bound interleukin (IL)-6 by a Filter deployed in a Magnet, before the blood is returned to the patient. We report here on a series of animal studies, and a first-in-human study, on the safety of the IL-6-Sieve. Evaluations focused on the: (a) safety of Filter and Magnet placed in an extracorporeal circuit in sheep; (b) safety of Anti-IL-6 Beads-directly infused intravenously as worst case scenario of misuse; or injected into an extracorporeal circuit using the Bead Adapter, Filter, and Magnet as intended-in sheep; (c) biodistribution of Anti-IL-6 Beads intravenously infused in mice; and (d) safety of Filter and Magnet placed in an extracorporeal circuit in healthy volunteers. No serious adverse events or significant changes in vital signs or routine laboratory parameters occurred in any of the animals or humans. Although safety of the IL-6-Sieve requires further study, these initial evaluations represent a promising start for the translation of this new blood purification modality into clinical use.

[PMID: 38726154 PMCID: PMC11079094 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e30463] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Fournier's gangrene (FG) is a severe form of necrotizing fasciitis primarily caused by gram-negative bacteria. FG can rapidly progress to septic shock, resulting in high mortality rates. In the past, the management of the inflammatory response caused by gram-negative bacteria has been limited. Continuous Veno-Venous Hemofiltration with oXiris hemofilters (oXiris-CVVH) has shown promise in adsorbing inflammatory factors and endotoxins, making it an attractive approach for treating FG. This study aims to provide insights into the characteristics of patients with FG and septic shock who have been successfully treated using oXiris-CVVH, based on a series of patient cases. Results This study presents the management of 4 cases in the intensive care units of a tertiary hospital in southern China. The use of oXiris-CVVH in patients with septic shock and FG yielded valuable practical insights. Conclusion Based on the experience gained from these 4 cases, the utilization of oXiris-CVVH demonstrated potential in reducing the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, improving prognosis, and effectively lowering the levels of lactic acid and procalcitonin (PCT) in the blood. Additionally, it facilitated a reduction in the dosage of noradrenaline. Therefore, oXiris-CVVH should be considered as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment of patients with FG and septic shock.

Extracorporeal Blood Treatment Using Functional Magnetic Nanoclusters Mitigates Organ Dysfunction of Sepsis in Swine. SMALL METHODS 2024; 8:e2301428.

Abstract
Mitigating sepsis-induced severe organ dysfunction with magnetic nanoparticles has shown remarkable advances in extracorporeal blood treatment. Nevertheless, treating large septic animals remains challenging due to insufficient magnetic separation at rapid blood flow rates (>6 L h-1) and limited incubation time in an extracorporeal circuit. Herein, superparamagnetic nanoclusters (SPNCs) coated with red blood cell (RBC) membranes are developed, which promptly capture and magnetically separate a wide range of pathogens at high blood flow rates in a swine sepsis model. The SPNCs exhibited an ultranarrow size distribution of clustered iron oxide nanocrystals and exceptionally high saturation magnetization (≈ 90 emu g-1) close to that of bulk magnetite. It is also revealed that CD47 on the RBCs allows the RBC-SPNCs to remain at a consistent concentration in the blood by evading innate immunity. The uniform size distribution of the RBC-SPNCs greatly enhances their effectiveness in eradicating various pathogenic materials in extracorporeal blood. The use of RBC-SPNCs for extracorporeal treatment of swine infected with multidrug-resistant E. coli is validated and found that severe bacteremic sepsis-induced organ dysfunction is significantly mitigated after 12 h. The findings highlight the potential application of RBC-SPNCs for extracorporeal therapy of severe sepsis in large animal models and potentially humans.

Abstract
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome caused by pathogen infection, while the current antibiotics mainly utilized in clinical practice to combat infection result in the release of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) in the body. Herein, we provide an innovative strategy for controlling sepsis, namely, capturing active pathogens by means of extracorporeal blood purification. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were modified with dimethyldiallylammonium chloride (DDA) through γ-ray irradiation-induced graft polymerization to confer a positive charge. Then, CNT-DDAs are blended with polyurethane (PU) to prepare porous microspheres using the electro-spraying method. The obtained microspheres with a pore diameter of 2 μm served as pathogen traps and are termed as PU-CNT-DDA microspheres. Even at a high flow rate of 50 mL·min-1, the capture efficiencies of the PU-CNT-DDAs for Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus remained 94.7% and 98.8%, respectively. This approach circumvents pathogen lysis and mortality, significantly curtails the release of PAMPs, and hampers the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, hemoperfusion using porous PU-CNT-DDAs as pathogen traps to capture active pathogens and alleviate inflammation opens a new route for sepsis therapy.

Abstract
Pediatric acute kidney support therapy (paKST) programs aim to reliably provide safe, effective, and timely extracorporeal supportive care for acutely and critically ill pediatric patients with acute kidney injury (AKI), fluid and electrolyte derangements, and/or toxin accumulation with a goal of improving both hospital-based and lifelong outcomes. Little is known about optimal ways to configure paKST teams and programs, pediatric-specific aspects of delivering high-quality paKST, strategies for transitioning from acute continuous modes of paKST to facilitate rehabilitation, or providing effective short- and long-term follow-up. As part of the 26th Acute Disease Quality Initiative Conference, the first to focus on a pediatric population, we summarize here the current state of knowledge in paKST programs and technology, identify key knowledge gaps in the field, and propose a framework for current best practices and future research in paKST.

Abstract
Objective To investigate and analyse the quality of life (QoL) of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing maintenance haemodialysis (MHD), explore influencing factors and provide a basis for formulating corresponding intervention measures. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on 190 patients with CKD undergoing MHD in hospital between March 2021 and March 2022. A general information questionnaire and the Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form were used to collect data. The QoL scores of patients with CKD undergoing MHD were calculated and compared by t-test and analysis of variance. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyse the correlation between QoL scores and related factors. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was used to screen the influencing factors of QoL. Results The total score of QoL of patients with CKD undergoing MHD was 59.32 ± 11.67, and the scores of physical component summary, mental component summary and kidney disease component summary were 50.21 ± 9.32, 48.76 ± 10.81 and 66.34 ± 12.76, respectively. The QoL scores of patients with CKD undergoing MHD were significantly different in age, education level, marital status, employment status, monthly income, dialysis frequency, dialysis duration and complications (p < 0.05). The QoL scores were positively correlated with education level, monthly income and dialysis frequency, and negatively correlated with age, dialysis duration and blood phosphorus level (p < 0.05). Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, education level, employment status, dialysis frequency, dialysis duration and blood phosphorus level were the main influencing factors of QoL (p < 0.05). Conclusion The QoL of patients with CKD undergoing MHD is low, and it is affected by multiple factors. We suggest that healthcare workers should pay attention to the physical and mental health of patients with CKD undergoing MHD, provide individualised and comprehensive nursing interventions and improve their QoL.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is one of the most widely used blood purification and organ support methods in the ICU. However, the development process, the current status, hotspots, and future trends of CRRT remain unclear. METHOD The WoSCC database was used to analyze CRRT research evolution and theme trends. VOSviewer was used to construct coauthorship, co-occurrence, co-citation, and network visualizations. CiteSpace is used to detect bursts for co-occurrence items. Several important subtopics were reviewed and discussed in more detail. RESULTS Global publications increased from 56 in 2000 to 398 in 2023, a 710.71% increase. Blood Purification published the most manuscripts, followed by the International Journal of Artificial Organs. The USA, the San Bortolo Hospital, and Bellomo were the most productive and impactful institution, country, and author, respectively. Based on co-occurrence cluster analysis, five clusters emerged: (1) clinical applications and management of CRRT; (2) sepsis and CRRT; (3) CRRT anticoagulant management; (4) CRRT and antibiotic pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics; and (5) comparison of CRRT and intermittent hemodialysis. COVID-19, initiation, ECOMO, cefepime, guidelines, cardiogenic shock, biomarker, and outcome were the latest high-frequency keywords or strongest bursts, indicating the emerging frontiers of CRRT. CONCLUSIONS There has been widespread publication and citation of CRRT research in the past 2 decades. We provide an overview of current trends, global collaboration patterns, basic knowledge, research hotspots, and emerging frontiers.

Abstract
Sepsis and septic shock are associated with high mortality, with diagnosis and treatment remaining a challenge for clinicians. Their management classically encompasses hemodynamic resuscitation, antibiotic treatment, life support, and focus control; however, there are aspects that have changed. This narrative review highlights current and avant-garde methods of handling patients experiencing septic shock based on the experience of its authors and the best available evidence in a context of uncertainty. Following the first recommendation of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines, it is recommended that specific sepsis care performance improvement programs are implemented in hospitals, i.e., "Sepsis Code" programs, designed ad hoc, to achieve this goal. Regarding hemodynamics, the importance of perfusion and hemodynamic coherence stand out, which allow for the recognition of different phenotypes, determination of the ideal time for commencing vasopressor treatment, and the appropriate fluid therapy dosage. At present, this is not only important for the initial timing, but also for de-resuscitation, which involves the early weaning of support therapies, directed elimination of fluids, and fluid tolerance concept. Finally, regarding blood purification therapies, those aimed at eliminating endotoxins and cytokines are attractive in the early management of patients in septic shock.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2024; 11:1344893. [PMID: 38357649 PMCID: PMC10864431 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2024.1344893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose In septic shock patients, pathogens and excessive endotoxins continuously overstimulate the host's immune system with a cytokine storm that can lead to multi-organ failure and even mortality. Various types of extracorporeal blood purification treatments have recently been introduced to remove excessive endotoxins and cytokines. Herein, we compared the clinical efficacy of two blood purification methods, PMX-HP and AN69-oXiris, and discussed their detailed indications according to disease severity. Materials and methods From December 2016 to April 2023, patients who underwent emergent surgery due to septic shock secondary to peritonitis and subsequently received blood purification treatment with AN69-oXiris or PMX-HP were enrolled. Propensity score (PS)-matching was conducted to adjust for baseline characteristics between the two groups, and the changes in clinical parameters and outcomes were compared. Clinical outcomes were assessed in subgroups of patients who underwent PMX-HP treatment divided according to SOFA scores into low (0-7), intermediate (8-13), and high (> 13) disease severity groups. Results Forty patients received blood purification therapy with either PMX-HP or AN69-oXiris during the study period. After 1:2 PS matching, six patients in the AN69-oXiris group and 12 patients in the PMX-HP group were finally analyzed. Vasoactive-inotropic scores (VISs) decreased in both groups after 48 h of treatment compared to the baseline values, but the change in VISs was more pronounced in the PMX-HP group {-57.6 [interquartile range (IQR) = -166.4 - (-10)] vs. -22.9 [IQR = -64-0], respectively, p = 0.041}. Decreases in cardiovascular SOFA scores were significantly pronounced in the PMX-HP group [-1.5 (IQR = -4 - 0) vs. 0 (IQR = -1 - 1), respectively, p = 0.035]. The 7-day mortality rate was significantly lower than the predicted mortality rate in a subgroup analysis of patients treated with PMX-HP in both the low disease severity group and the intermediate disease severity group. Conclusion PMX-HP and AN69-oXiris could be therapeutic options for refractory septic shock patients with intra-abdominal origins, especially after the surgical elimination of the infectious sources. A tailored modality choice that takes into account patient characteristics, such as disease severity and cost burden, could optimize the efficacy of this strategy.

Abstract
Cytokine adsorption can resolve different complications characteristic of transplantation medicine, such as cytokine storm activation and blood ABO and immune incompatibilities. Cytokine adsorption is also performed for the treatment of various life-threatening conditions, such as endotoxic septic shock, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and cardiogenic shock, all potentially leading to adverse clinical outcomes during transplantation. After surgery, dysmetabolism and stress response limit successful graft survival and can lead to primary or secondary graft dysfunction. In this clinical context, and given that a major problem in transplant medicine is that the demand for organs far exceeds the supply, a technological innovation such as a hemoadsorption system could greatly contribute to increasing the number of usable organ donors. The objectives of this review are to describe the specific advantages and disadvantages of the application of cytokine adsorption in the context of transplantation and examine, before and/or after organ transplantation, the benefits of the addition of a cytokine adsorption therapy protocol.

Hemoadsorption Therapy for Critically Ill Patients with Acute Liver Dysfunction: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review. Biomedicines 2023; 12:67. [PMID: 38255174 PMCID: PMC10813081 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12010067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Critically ill patients are at risk of developing acute liver dysfunction as part of multiorgan failure sequelae. Clearing the blood from toxic liver-related metabolites and cytokines could prevent further organ damage. Despite the increasing use of hemoadsorption for this purpose, evidence of its efficacy is lacking. Therefore, we conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the evidence on clinical outcomes following hemoadsorption therapy. A systematic search conducted in six electronic databases (PROSPERO registration: CRD42022286213) yielded 30 eligible publications between 2011 and 2023, reporting the use of hemoadsorption for a total of 335 patients presenting with liver dysfunction related to acute critical illness. Of those, 26 are case presentations (n = 84), 3 are observational studies (n = 142), and 1 is a registry analysis (n = 109). Analysis of data from individual cases showed a significant reduction in levels of aspartate transaminase (p = 0.03) and vasopressor need (p = 0.03) and a tendency to lower levels of total bilirubin, alanine transaminase, C-reactive protein, and creatinine. Pooled data showed a significant reduction in total bilirubin (mean difference of -4.79 mg/dL (95% CI: -6.25; -3.33), p = 0.002). The use of hemoadsorption for critically ill patients with acute liver dysfunction or failure seems to be safe and yields a trend towards improved liver function after therapy, but more high-quality evidence is crucially needed.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Advancements in the conceptual thinking of hemostasis and thrombosis have been catalyzed by major developments within health research over several decades. The cascade model of coagulation was first described in the 1960s, when biochemistry gained prominence through innovative experimentation and technical developments. This was followed by the cell-based model, which integrated cellular coordination to the enzymology of clot formation and was conceptualized during the growth period in cell biology at the turn of the millennium. Each step forward has heralded a revolution in clinical therapeutics, both in procoagulant and anticoagulant treatments to improve patient care. In current times, the COVID-19 pandemic may also prove to be a catalyst: thrombotic challenges including the mixed responses to anticoagulant treatment and the vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia have exposed limitations in our preexisting concepts while simultaneously demanding novel therapeutic approaches. It is increasingly clear that innate immune activation as part of the host response to injury is not separate but integrated into adaptive clot formation. Our review summarizes current understanding of the major molecules facilitating such a cross talk between immunity, inflammation and coagulation. We demonstrate how such effects can be layered upon the cascade and cell-based models to evolve conceptual understanding of the physiology of immunohemostasis and the pathology of immunothrombosis.

Effects of enhanced adsorption haemofiltration versus haemoadsorption in severe, refractory septic shock with high levels of endotoxemia: the ENDoX bicentric, randomized, controlled trial. Ann Intensive Care 2023; 13:127. [PMID: 38095800 PMCID: PMC10721780 DOI: 10.1186/s13613-023-01224-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endotoxin adsorption is a promising but controversial therapy in severe, refractory septic shock and conflicting results exist on the effective capacity of available devices to reduce circulating endotoxin and inflammatory cytokine levels. METHODS Multiarm, randomized, controlled trial in two Swiss intensive care units, with a 1:1:1 randomization of patients suffering severe, refractory septic shock with high levels of endotoxemia, defined as an endotoxin activity ≥ 0.6, a vasopressor dependency index ≥ 3, volume resuscitation of at least 30 ml/kg/24 h and at least single organ failure, to a haemoadsorption (Toraymyxin), an enhanced adsorption haemofiltration (oXiris) or a control intervention. Primary endpoint was the difference in endotoxin activity at 72-h post-intervention to baseline. In addition, inflammatory cytokine, vasopressor dependency index and SOFA-Score dynamics over the initial 72 h were assessed inter alia. RESULTS In the 30, out of 437 screened, randomized patients (10 Standard of care, 10 oXiris, 10 Toraymyxin), endotoxin reduction at 72-h post-intervention-start did not differ among interventions (Standard of Care: 12 [1-42]%, oXiris: 21 [10-51]%, Toraymyxin: 23 [10-36]%, p = 0.82). Furthermore, no difference between groups could be observed neither for reduction of inflammatory cytokine levels (p = 0.58), nor for vasopressor weaning (p = 0.95) or reversal of organ injury (p = 0.22). CONCLUSIONS In a highly endotoxemic, severe, refractory septic shock population neither the Toraymyxin adsorber nor the oXiris membrane could show a reduction in circulating endotoxin or cytokine levels over standard of care.

Abstract
Sepsis leads to organ dysfunction. Acute kidney injury, a common type of organ dysfunction, is associated with a high mortality rate in patients with sepsis. Kidney replacement therapy can correct the metabolic, electrolyte, and fluid imbalances caused by acute kidney injury. While this therapy can improve outcomes, evidence of its beneficial effects is lacking. Herein, we review the indications for blood purification therapy, including kidney replacement therapy, and the current knowledge regarding acute kidney injury in terms of renal and non-renal indications. While renal indications have been well-documented, indications for blood purification therapy in sepsis (non-renal indications) remain controversial. Excessive inflammation is an important factor in the development of sepsis; blood purification therapy has been shown to reduce inflammatory mediators and improve hemodynamic instability. Given the pathophysiology of sepsis, blood purification therapy may decrease mortality rates in these patients. Further trials are needed in order to establish the effectiveness of blood purification therapy for sepsis.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the inflammatory parameters and oxygenation in severe coronavirus disease-19 patients who underwent extracorporeal cytokine adsorption (CA). METHODS Patients who underwent extracorporeal CA for cytokine storm were included in the study. The changes in oxygenation, laboratory parameters, and mortality rates were investigated. RESULTS Thirty-six patients were included in the study. The hemoglobin, thrombocyte, and C-reactive protein (CRP) decreased, and PaO2 /FiO2 ratio increased (p < 0.001; p < 0.01; p < 0.001; p = 0.04, respectively). Twelve (33.3%) patients received a single session, 24 (66.6%) received 2 or more sessions. CRP and fibrinogen levels decreased, and PaO2 /FIO2 ratio increased in the single session group (p = 0.04; p = 0.04; p = 0.01, respectively). In the multi-session group, the hemoglobin, platelet, procalcitonin, and CRP levels decreased, and PaO2 /FIO2 ratio increased (p < 0.01; p = 0.02; p = 0.02; p < 0.01; p = 0.01, respectively). Day 15, 30, and 90 mortality rates were 61.1%, 83.3%, and 88.9%. CONCLUSION CA with hemoperfusion reduced CRP and improved oxygenation; however, mortality rates were high.

Abstract
In 2022, we celebrated the 15th anniversary of the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) Academy, a 2-day conference attended yearly by an international audience of over 100 nephrology, critical care, and multidisciplinary trainees and practitioners. This year, we introduce the proceedings of the UAB CRRT Academy, a yearly review of select emerging topics in the field of critical care nephrology that feature prominently in the conference. First, we review the rapidly evolving field of non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring and its potential to guide fluid removal by renal replacement therapy (RRT). We begin by summarizing the accumulating data associating fluid overload with harm in critical illness and the potential for harm from end-organ hypoperfusion caused by excessive fluid removal with RRT, underscoring the importance of accurate, dynamic assessment of volume status. We describe four applications of point-of-care ultrasound used to identify patients in need of urgent fluid removal or likely to tolerate fluid removal: lung ultrasound, inferior vena cava ultrasound, venous excess ultrasonography, and Doppler of the left ventricular outflow track to estimate stroke volume. We briefly introduce other minimally invasive hemodynamic monitoring technologies before concluding that additional prospective data are urgently needed to adapt these technologies to the specific task of fluid removal by RRT and to learn how best to integrate them into practical fluid-management strategies. Second, we focus on the growth of novel extracorporeal blood purification devices, starting with brief reviews of the inflammatory underpinnings of multiorgan dysfunction and the specific applications of pathogen, endotoxin, and/or cytokine removal and immunomodulation. Finally, we review a series of specific adsorptive technologies, several of which have seen substantial clinical use during the COVID-19 pandemic, describing their mechanisms of target removal, the limited existing data supporting their efficacy, ongoing and future studies, and the need for additional prospective trials.

Abstract
In order to develop a standardized nomenclature for the mechanisms and materials utilized during extracorporeal blood purification, a consensus expert conference was convened in November 2022. Standardized nomenclature serves as a common language for reporting research findings, new device development, and education. It is also critically important to support patient safety, allow comparisons between techniques, materials, and devices, and be essential for defining and naming innovative technologies and classifying devices for regulatory approval. The multidisciplinary conference developed detailed descriptions of the performance characteristics of devices (membranes, filters, and sorbents), solute and fluid transport mechanisms, flow parameters, and methods of treatment evaluation. In addition, nomenclature for adsorptive blood purification techniques was proposed. This report summarizes these activities and highlights the need for standardization of nomenclature in the future to harmonize research, education, and innovation in extracorporeal blood purification therapies.

Single-Center Experience With the Seraph-100® Microbind® Affinity Blood Filter in Patients With SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Septic Shock at a Military Treatment Facility. Mil Med 2023; 188:e2670-e2674. [PMID: 36852879 DOI: 10.1093/milmed/usad063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/01/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection is characterized by a dysregulated inflammatory response, which may result in severe hemodynamic instability and septic shock. The Seraph-100® Microbind® Affinity Blood Filter is a commercially available extracorporeal pathogen absorbent device with the ability to bind pathogens and cytokines present within the blood. Our study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the Seraph-100® for patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and septic shock. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review was performed to evaluate the use of the Seraph-100® blood filter at a Single Center tertiary-care facility at Brooke Army Medical Center from 2020 to 2021. Nine patients (11 treatments) were completed with the Seraph-100® blood filter in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection and septic shock. The Seraph-100® blood filter was used in combination with continuous renal replacement therapy and slow low-efficiency dialysis or directly in parallel with the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit. RESULTS Within this cohort, there was a statistically significant improvement in the following clinical parameters comparing values to before and after treatment with the Seraph-100® blood filter: Mean arterial pressure (mmHg) (64.2 ± 2.36 vs. 76.2 ± 2.68; P < .001), heart rate (beats per minute) (128 ± 6.6 vs. 100.3 ± 6.07; P < .001), administered fraction of oxygen (%) (74.4 ± 10.58 vs. 60.3 ± 10.35; P < .001), serum lactate (mmol/L) (6.14 ± 1.25 vs. 2.8 ± 1.14; P = .0095), and pH (7.29 ± 0.03 vs. 7.39 ± 0.04; P = .0203). There were statistically significant improvements in vasopressor requirements: norepinephrine (mcg/min) (36.3 ± 4.74 vs. 8.3 ± 3.92; P < .001), vasopressin (units/min) (0.04 ± 0.004 vs. 0.02 ± 0.003; P < .001), dobutamine (mcg/kg/min) (2.3 ± 1.00 vs. 0.2 ± 0.75; P = .006) and angiotensin II (ng/kg/min) (34.5 ± 6.4 vs. 3.3 ± 5.26; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS The use of the Seraph-100® blood filter was associated with statistically and clinically significant improvements in hemodynamic parameters and decreased vasopressor requirements in patients with septic shock and SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study investigates the impact of sequential extracorporeal treatments with oXiris® or CytoSorb® plus Seraph-100® on the clinical and laboratory parameters of critically ill COVID-19 patients with bacterial superinfection. METHODS Patients admitted to the intensive care unit with COVID-19, bacterial superinfection, and undergoing blood purification (BP) were enrolled in this prospective, single-center, observational study. "standard BP" with oXiris® or CytoSorb® were used in 35 COVID-19 patients with bacterial infection. Seraph-100® was added in 33 patients when available serially in the same oXiris® circuit or as sequential treatment with CytoSorb® as a sequential BP. RESULTS A significant reduction in SOFA score 3 days after treatment was observed in patients undergoing sequential BP (11.3 vs. 8.17, p < 0.01) compared to those undergoing "standard BP" (11.0 vs. 10.3, p > 0.05). The difference between the observed and expected mortality rate based on APACHE IV was greater in the sequential BP group (42.4% vs. 81.7%, p < 0.001) than the "standard BP" (74.2% vs. 81.7%, p > 0.05). Patients treated with sequential BP had a longer survival than those treated with "standard BP" (22.4 vs. 18.7 months; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The sequential approach may enhance the positive effect of BP on organ dysfunction among critically ill patients with COVID-19 and bacterial superinfection.

Haemoadsorption Combined with Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy in Abdominal Sepsis: Case Report Series. J Pers Med 2023; 13:1113. [PMID: 37511726 PMCID: PMC10381379 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13071113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Revised: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
In recent decades, multiple efforts have been made to identify targets and therapeutic measures in the host response to infection. Haemoadsorption, under the attractive theoretical premise of inflammatory response modulation through the adsorption of soluble inflammatory mediators, could have a place as an adjuvant therapy in septic patients. The development of new devices and the recent COVID-19 pandemic has renewed interest in this therapy. The aim of this report is to describe our experience in patients with abdominal sepsis for whom haemoadsorption with a neutral microporous resin column was added to conventional treatment and to describe its performance through patient cases in the absence of large randomised trials with this device. We present five patients with abdominal sepsis admitted to a Spanish intensive care unit in which haemoadsorption was used as adjuvant treatment. The key practical aspects of the treatment protocol have been used as a guide for conducting a multicentric study. Based on the experience gathered in these five cases, the potential benefit of haemoadsorption as adjuvant therapy in patients with abdominal sepsis with multiple organ failure after control of the source of infection and adequate treatment should be investigated. Likewise, it must be defined which patients can benefit from the therapy, the most appropriate biomarkers to guide the therapy, the ideal time of initiation and discontinuation, its potential side effects, and the interaction with other therapies, especially how such treatment affects the antibiotics levels.

Continuous renal replacement therapy with the adsorptive oXiris filter may be associated with the lower 28-day mortality in sepsis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Crit Care 2023; 27:275. [PMID: 37424026 PMCID: PMC10331993 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-023-04555-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The oXiris is a novel filter for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) featuring an adsorption coating to adsorb endotoxins and remove inflammatory mediators. Given that no consensus has been reached on its potential benefits in treating sepsis, a meta-analysis was conducted to assess its impact on the clinical outcomes of this patient population. METHODS Eleven databases were retrieved to find relevant observational studies and randomized controlled trials. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool were used to assess the quality of the included studies. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) process was employed to assess the certainty of evidence. The 28-day mortality was the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes were 7-, 14-, and 90-day mortality, length of intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stay, ICU and hospital mortality, norepinephrine (NE) dose, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and lactate levels, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. RESULTS The meta-analysis, pooling data from 14 studies, involving 695 patients, showed significant reductions in 28-day mortality [odds ratio (OR) 0.53; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.36-0.77, p = 0.001] and length of ICU stay [weighted mean difference (WMD) - 1.91; 95% CI - 2.56 to - 1.26, p < 0.001)] in patients with sepsis using the oXiris filter compared to other filters. Besides, the SOFA score, NE dose, IL-6 and lactate levels, and 7- and 14-day mortalities were lower in the oXiris group. However, the 90-day mortality, ICU and hospital mortality, and length of hospital stay were comparable. The quality assessment of the ten observational studies indicated intermediate to high quality (average Newcastle-Ottawa score: 7.8). However, all four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) had an unclear risk of bias. The evidence for all outcomes had a low or very low level of certainty because the original study design was mainly observational studies and the RCTs included had an unclear risk of bias and a small sample size. CONCLUSION The treatment with the oXiris filter during CRRT in sepsis patients may be associated with lower 28-, 7-, and 14-day mortalities, lactate levels, SOFA score, NE dose, and shorter length of ICU stay. However, due to the low or very low quality of evidence, the effectiveness of oXiris filters was still uncertain. Besides, no significant difference was observed for the 90-day mortality, ICU and hospital mortality, and length of hospital stay.

Abstract
Sepsis is a critical condition affecting patients worldwide. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome in sepsis contributes to organ dysfunction and mortality. The oXiris is a recently developed continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) hemofilter indicated for the adsorption of cytokines from the bloodstream. In our study, in a septic child, CRRT with three filters, including the oXiris hemofilter, resulted in a downregulation of inflammatory biomarkers and a reduction of vasopressors. Herein, we described the first report of such usage in septic children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Miliary tuberculosis is a life-threatening disease caused by the hematogenous spread of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is uncommon in pregnancy. Mortality rates for patients with miliary tuberculosis who require mechanical ventilation are high (60-70%). CASE PRESENTATION We reported a rare and challenging case, a 35-year-old Asian woman with 34 weeks of pregnancy, and miliary tuberculosis with acute respiratory distress syndrome and septic shock. The patient presented with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome, necessitating mechanical ventilation, vasopressor, and pregnancy termination with caesarean section. The patient underwent blood purification with continuous veno-venous hemofiltration using an oXiris filter for 24 hours. After continuous veno-venous hemofiltration, the patient's condition was greatly improved, and the patient was successfully extubated and was able to breathe spontaneously without vasopressor on the third day. High levels of interleukin-6, interleukin-10, procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, interferon-γ, and tumor necrosis factor-α were found postoperatively. CONCLUSION The bacterial infection of tuberculosis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and the stress response from the caesarean section contributed to the high levels of cytokines, which correlated with the patient's severe inflammatory condition. The cytokine levels were greatly reduced after the blood purification procedure and this might be associated with the patient's clinical improvement. Extracorporeal blood purification could help to disrupt the vicious cycle of inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite various therapies to treat sepsis, it is one of the leading causes of mortality in the intensive care unit patients globally. Knowledge about the pathophysiology of sepsis has sparked interest in extracorporeal therapies (ECT) which are intended to balance the dysregulation of the immune system by removing excessive levels of inflammatory mediators.
AIM To review recent data on the use of ECT in sepsis and to assess their effects on various inflammatory and clinical outcomes.
METHODS In this review, an extensive English literature search was conducted from the last two decades to identify the use of ECT in sepsis. A total of 68 articles from peer-reviewed and indexed journals were selected excluding publications with only abstracts.
RESULTS Results showed that ECT techniques such as high-volume hemofiltration, coupled plasma adsorption/filtration, resin or polymer adsorbers, and CytoSorb® are emerging as adjunct therapies to improve hemodynamic stability in sepsis. CytoSorb® has the most published data in regard to the use in the field of septic shock with reports on improved survival rates and lowered sequential organ failure assessment scores, lactate levels, total leucocyte count, platelet count, interleukin- IL-6, IL-10, and TNF levels.
CONCLUSION Clinical acceptance of ECT in sepsis and septic shock is currently still limited due to a lack of large random clinical trials. In addition to patient-tailored therapies, future research developments with therapies targeting the cellular level of the immune response are expected.

Abstract
Even in the absence of strong indications deriving from clinical studies, the removal of mediators is increasingly used in septic shock and in other clinical conditions characterized by a hyperinflammatory response. Despite the different underlying mechanisms of action, they are collectively indicated as blood purification techniques. Their main categories include blood- and plasma processing procedures, which can run in a stand-alone mode or, more commonly, in association with a renal replacement treatment. The different techniques and principles of function, the clinical evidence derived from multiple clinical investigations, and the possible side effects are reviewed and discussed along with the persisting uncertainties about their precise role in the therapeutic armamentarium of these syndromes.

Microbead-based extracorporeal immuno-affinity virus capture: a feasibility study to address the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Mikrochim Acta 2023; 190:95. [PMID: 36808576 PMCID: PMC9937867 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-023-05671-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/22/2023] [Indexed: 02/20/2023]
Abstract
In this paper, we report on the utilization of micro-technology based tools to fight viral infections. Inspired by various hemoperfusion and immune-affinity capture systems, a blood virus depletion device has been developed that offers highly efficient capture and removal of the targeted virus from the circulation, thus decreasing virus load. Single-domain antibodies against the Wuhan (VHH-72) virus strain produced by recombinant DNA technology were immobilized on the surface of glass micro-beads, which were then utilized as stationary phase. For feasibility testing, the virus suspension was flown through the prototype immune-affinity device that captured the viruses and the filtered media left the column. The feasibility test of the proposed technology was performed in a Biosafety Level 4 classified laboratory using the Wuhan SARS-CoV-2 strain. The laboratory scale device actually captured 120,000 virus particles from the culture media circulation proving the feasibility of the suggested technology. This performance has an estimated capture ability of 15 million virus particles by using the therapeutic size column design, representing three times over-engineering with the assumption of 5 million genomic virus copies in an average viremic patient. Our results suggested that this new therapeutic virus capture device could significantly lower virus load thus preventing the development of more severe COVID-19 cases and consequently reducing mortality rate.

Hemoperfusion with Seraph 100 Microbind Affinity Blood Filter Unlikely to Require Increased Antibiotic Dosing: A Simulations Study Using a Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Approach. Blood Purif 2023; 52:25-31. [PMID: 35526522 DOI: 10.1159/000524457] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Seraph® 100 Microbind® Affinity Blood Filter (Seraph 100) is a hemoperfusion device that can remove pathogens from central circulation. However, the effect of Seraph 100 on achieving pharmacodynamic (PD) targets is not well described. We sought to determine the impact of Seraph 100 on ability to achieve PD targets for commonly used antibiotics. METHODS Estimates of Seraph 100 antibiotic clearance were obtained via literature. For vancomycin and gentamicin, published pharmacokinetic models were used to explore the effect of Seraph 100 on ability to achieve probability of target attainment (PTA). For meropenem and imipenem, the reported effect of continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) on achieving PTA was used to extrapolate decisions for Seraph 100. RESULTS Seraph 100 antibiotic clearance is likely less than 0.5 L/h for most antibiotics. Theoretical Seraph 100 clearance up to 0.5 L/h and 2 L/h had a negligible effect on vancomycin PTA in virtual patients with creatinine clearance (CrCl) = 14 mL/min and CrCl >14 mL/min, respectively. Theoretical Seraph 100 clearance up to 0.5 L/h and 2 L/h had a negligible effect on gentamicin PTA in virtual patients with CrCl = 120 mL/min and CrCl <60 mL/min, respectively. CKRT intensity resulting in antibiotic clearance up to 2 L/h generally does not require dose increases for meropenem or imipenem. As Seraph 100 is prescribed intermittently and likely contributes far less to antibiotic clearance, dose increases would also not be required. CONCLUSION Seraph 100 clearance of vancomycin, gentamicin, meropenem, and imipenem is likely clinically insignificant. There is insufficient evidence to recommend increased doses. For aminoglycosides, we recommend extended interval dosing and initiating Seraph 100 at least 30 min to 1 h after completion of infusion to avoid the possibility of interference with maximum concentrations.

Abstract
As highlighted by the last international consensus definition for sepsis and septic shock (sepsis-3), sepsis comes from a complex relationship between a pathogen and a dysregulated host response. To date, the treatment of sepsis is based on antimicrobial treatment, source control, and organ support. Extracorporeal blood purification therapies have been proposed as adjuvant therapies to modulate the dysregulated inflammatory response. These therapies aim mostly at removing inflammatory mediators (cytokines) and endotoxins from the blood. However, so far, they failed to clearly demonstrate an improvement in patient survival when evaluated in randomized trials. Recently, new devices directly targeting the primary determinants of sepsis, e.g., the pathogen itself and the host immune cells, have been developed. This short review aimed at presenting new blood purification devices that have recently been developed to target pathogens and immune cells. For each, we will present the mechanism of action of the therapy and discuss the related literature.

Abstract
COVID-19 has been affecting the world unprecedentedly and will remain widely prevalent due to its elusive pathophysiological mechanism and the continuous emergence of new variants. Critically ill patients with COVID-19 are commonly associated with cytokine storm, multiple organ dysfunction, and high mortality. To date, growing evidence has shown that extracorporeal hemoadsorption can exert its adjuvant effect to standard of care by regulating immune homeostasis, reducing viremia, and decreasing endotoxin activity in critically ill COVID-19 cases. However, the selection of various hemofilters, timing of initiation and termination of hemoadsorption therapy, anticoagulation management of extracorporeal circuits, identification of target subgroups, and ultimate survival benefit remain controversial. The purpose of this narrative review is to comprehensively summarize the rationale for the use of hemoadsorption in critically ill patients with COVID-19 and to gather the latest clinical evidence in this field.

Abstract
Patients with serious thermal burn injuries require immediate and specialized care in order to minimize morbidity and mortality. Optimal fluid resuscitation, nutritional support, pulmonary care, burn wound care, and infection control practices represent key aspects of patient care in burn centers. When severely burned, the patient usually presents a systemic inflammatory response syndrome, soon balanced by a counter anti-inflammatory response syndrome. These may lead to immune dysregulation/exhaustion favoring infectious complications that dramatically impair the prognosis of burn patients. This narrative review provides an overview of the main concepts, current understanding, and potential applications of extracorporeal blood purification techniques for burn patient management. Current understanding of burn patients' immune responses is reported. Hypotheses and data on the potential value of immunoregulation are reviewed. Finally, how extracorporeal blood purification may be of interest in this specific population is discussed.

Abstract
Objectives Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a long-term condition characterized by poor prognosis and a high mortality rate. Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) are the main active ingredient of the traditional Chinese herb Panaxnotoginseng(Burk.)F.H.Chen, which has been widely reported to have various pharmacological effects. Here, we examined the effect of PNS on renal function and the modulation of intestinal flora and intestinal barrier in a rat model of adenine-induced CKD. Methods Adenine was used to establish a rat model of CKD, biochemical testing, histopathologic examination, ELISA, immunohistochemical assay, western blot assay, and fecal microbiota 16s rRNA analysis was used to test the effect of PNS on CKD rats. Results Adenine induced a significant decrease in glomerular filtration rate, an increase in urinary protein excretion rate, and pathological damage to renal tissue in CKD rats. TNF-α, MCP-1, IL-1β, IL-18, TMAO, and endotoxin levels were increased in the blood of the model rats. Application of PNS countered the effects of adenine, restoring the above parameters to the level observed in healthy rats. In addition, activation of the inflammatory proteins NF-κB (p65) and NLRP3 and the fibrosis-associated proteins α-SMA and smad3 were inhibited in the kidneys of CKD rats. Furthermore, PNS promoted the expression of the tight junction proteins Occludin and ZO-1, increased SIgA levels, strengthened intestinal immunity, reduced mechanical damage to the intestine, was reduced levels of DAO and D-LA. Our data suggest PNS may delay CKD by restoring gut microbiota, and through the subsequent generation of a microbial barrier and modulation of microbiota metabolites. Conclusions In conclusion, PNS may inhibit the development of inflammation and fibrosis in the kidney tissue through regulation of intestinal microorganisms and inhibition of the activation of pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic proteins in the kidney.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or endotoxin, the major cell wall component of Gram-negative bacteria, plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of sepsis. It is able to activate the host defense system through interaction with Toll-like receptor 4, thus triggering pro-inflammatory mechanisms. A large amount of LPS induces inappropriate activation of the immune system, triggering an exaggerated inflammatory response and consequent extensive organ injury, providing the basis of sepsis damage. In this review, we will briefly describe endotoxin's molecular structure and its main pathogenetic action during sepsis. In addition, we will summarize the main different available methods for endotoxin detection with a special focus on the wider spectrum offered by omics technologies (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics) and promising applications of these in the identification of specific biomarkers for sepsis.

Abstract
Excessive release of cytokines during systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) often leads to refractory hypotension and multiple organ failure with high mortality. Cytokine removal with hemoadsorption has emerged as a possible adjuvant therapy, but data on interleukin-6 (IL-6) reduction and outcomes in clinical practice are scarce. We aimed to evaluate the effect of CytoSorb hemoadsorption on laboratory and clinical outcomes in shocked patients with SIRS. We designed a retrospective analysis of all patients with SIRS treated with CytoSorb in intensive care units (ICU). IL-6, laboratory and hemodynamic parameters were analyzed at approximate time intervals during CytoSorb treatment in the whole cohort and in a subgroup with septic shock. Observed and predicted mortality rates were compared. We included 118 patients with various etiologies of SIRS (septic shock 69%, post-resuscitation shock 16%, SIRS with acute pancreatitis 6%, other 9%); in all but one patient, CytoSorb was coupled with renal replacement therapy. A statistically significant decrease in IL-6 and vasopressor index with an increase in pH and mean arterial pressure was observed from 6 h onward. The reduction of lactate became significant at 48 h. Results were similar in a subgroup of patients with septic shock. Observed ICU and in-hospital mortalities were lower than predicted by Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) (61% vs. 79%, p = 0.005) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II (64% vs. 78%, p = 0.031) scores. To conclude, hemoadsorption in shocked patients with SIRS was associated with a rapid decrease in IL-6 and hemodynamic improvement, with improved observed vs. predicted survival. These results need to be confirmed in a randomized study.

Abstract
Background: Extracorporeal hemadsorption eliminates proinflammatory mediators in critically ill patients with hyperinflammation. The use of a pumpless extracorporeal hemadsorption technique allows its early usage prior to organ failure and the need for an additional medical device. In our animal model, we investigated the feasibility of pumpless extracorporeal hemadsorption over a wide range of mean arterial pressures (MAP). Methods: An arteriovenous shunt between the femoral artery and femoral vein was established in eight pigs. The hemadsorption devices were inserted into the shunt circulation; four pigs received CytoSorb® and four Oxiris® hemadsorbers. Extracorporeal blood flow was measured in a range between mean arterial pressures of 45-85 mmHg. Mean arterial pressures were preset using intravenous infusions of noradrenaline, urapidil, or increased sedatives. Results: Extracorporeal blood flows remained well above the minimum flows recommended by the manufacturers throughout all MAP steps for both devices. Linear regression resulted in CytoSorb® blood flow [mL/min] = 4.226 × MAP [mmHg] - 3.496 (R-square 0.8133) and Oxiris® blood flow [mL/min] = 3.267 × MAP [mmHg] + 57.63 (R-square 0.8708), respectively. Conclusion: Arteriovenous pumpless extracorporeal hemadsorption resulted in sufficient blood flows through both the CytoSorb® and Oxiris® devices over a wide range of mean arterial blood pressures and is likely an intriguing therapeutic option in the early phase of septic shock or hyperinflammatory syndromes.

In-Depth Analysis of the Extracorporeal Proteome Adsorbed to Dialysis Membranes during Hemodialysis. MEMBRANES 2022; 12:1120. [PMID: 36363675 PMCID: PMC9695746 DOI: 10.3390/membranes12111120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2022] [Revised: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 11/03/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Used hemodialysis membranes (HD-M) are a valuable reservoir of biological information. Proteins bind to HD-M, but whether this process depends on the type of membrane or patient factors or selectively affects specific protein classes has not been adequately elucidated. State-of-the-art proteomics techniques are capable of identifying and quantifying this therapy-specific subproteome to enable the analysis of disease- or membrane-induced pathophysiologies. We demonstrate the feasibility of the deep proteomic characterization of the extracorporeal proteome adsorbed to HD-M. A shotgun proteomics approach using nano-flow liquid chromatography coupled to mass-spectrometry identified 1648 unique proteins eluted by a chaotropic buffer from the HD-M of eight patients. In total, 995 proteins were present in all eluates; a more stringent approach showed that a core proteome of 310 proteins could be identified independently in all samples. Stability of the dialyzer proteome was demonstrated by a >90% re-identification rate on longitudinal samples of a single patient. The core proteome showed an overrepresentation of pathways of hemostasis and the immune system, and showed differences in membrane materials (polysulfone vs. helixone). This study demonstrates that optimized conditions combined with high-performance proteomics enable the in-depth exploration of the subproteome bound to HD-M, yielding a stable core proteome that can be exploited to study patient-specific factors and improve hemodialysis therapy.

Abstract
Simple Summary Septic shock is a life-threatening disease caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, affecting millions of people every year and killing more than 25% directly despite advances in modern medicine. This pathology is characterized by apoptosis-induced depletion of immune cells and immunodepression. Many alterations in the expression of surface markers of neutrophils and monocytes have been described in septic patients. There is no specific treatment but the early identification and diagnosis of the pathology as well as timely treatment can greatly improve patient outcomes. The aim of this study was to inspect the recently published literature to inform the clinician about the most up-to-date techniques for the study of immune cell phenotypes and on the function of leukocytes of extracorporeal and non-blood purification treatments proposed for sepsis were also analyzed. The most important alteration observed in septic neutrophils is the activation of a survival program capable of resisting apoptotic death. As regards adaptive immunity, sepsis-induced apoptosis leads to lymphopenia in patients with septic shock and this process involves all types of T cells (CD4, CD8 and Natural Killer), except for regulatory T cells, favoring immunosuppression. Several promising therapies that target the host’s immune response to sepsis are currently under evaluation. Abstract Innate and adaptive immune system cells play a critical role in the host response to sepsis. Sepsis is a life-threatening disease characterized by apoptosis-induced depletion of immune cells and immunodepression, which contribute to morbidity and mortality. Many alterations in the expression of surface markers of neutrophils and monocytes have been described in septic patients. The aim of this study was to inspect the recently published literature to inform the clinician about the most up-to-date techniques for the study of circulating leukocytes. The impact on cell phenotypes and on the function of leukocytes of extracorporeal and non-blood purification treatments proposed for sepsis were also analyzed. We conducted a systematic review using Pubmed/Medline, Ovid/Willey, the Cochrane Library, the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, and EMBASE, combining key terms related to immunological function in sepsis and selected the most relevant clinical trials and review articles (excluding case reports) published in the last 50 years. The most important alteration in neutrophils during sepsis is that they activate an anti-apoptotic survival program. In septic monocytes, a reduced characteristic expression of HLA-DR is observed, but their role does not seem to be significantly altered in sepsis. As regards adaptive immunity, sepsis leads to lymphopenia and immunosuppression in patients with septic shock; this process involves all types of T cells (CD4, CD8 and Natural Killer), except for regulatory T cells, which retain their function. Several promising therapies that target the host immune response are currently under evaluation. During the worldwide pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, it was useful to study the “cytokine storm” to find additional treatments, such as the oXiris® filter. This therapy can decrease the concentration of inflammatory markers that affect the severity of the disease.

Abstract
Background In the absence of direct therapy for COVID-19, extracorporeal blood treatment (EBT) could represent an option for cytokine removal. Objective This study aimed to describe and compare cytokine removal during intermittent haemodialysis (IHD) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in COVID-19 patients with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). Methods It was a cohort study that studied patients with COVID-19-related AKI according to KDIGO criteria and admitted at Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Blood samples were collected at the start and end of both IHD using high flux (HF) membranes (10 patients) and continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF:10 patients) in two sessions for measuring 13 different plasma interleukins and calculating the cytokine removal rate. Results There was no difference between the two groups regarding mechanical ventilation, vasoactive drug, age or prognostic scores. Patients treated by CRRT presented higher levels of IL-2 and IL-8 than patients treated by IHD at dialysis start. Cytokine removal ranged from 9% to 78%. Patients treated by CRRT presented higher cytokine removal for IL-2, IL-6 IL-8, IP-10 and TNF. The removal rates of IL-4, IL-10, IL-17A, IFN, MCP-1 and TGF-B1 were similar in two groups. After one session of CVVHDF (24 h), IL-2 and IL-1β levels did not vary significantly, whereas IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17A, TNF, IFN, IP-10, MCP-1, IL-12p70 and TGF-B1 decreased by 33.8–76%, and this decrease was maintained over the next 24 h. In IHD groups, IL-2, IL-6, TNF, IP-10 and IL-1β levels did not decrease significantly whereas IL-4, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17A, IFN, MCP-1, IL-12p70 and TGF-B1 decreased by 21.8–72%; however, cytokine levels returned to their initial values after 24 h. Conclusion Cytokine removal is lower in IHD using HF membranes than in CVVHDF, and in IHD the removal is transient and selective, which can be associated with mortality during cytokines storm-related COVID-19.

Abstract
Bloodstream infection caused by antimicrobial resistance pathogens is a global concern because it is difficult to treat with conventional therapy. Here, scavenger magnetic nanoparticles enveloped by nanovesicles derived from blood cells (MNVs) are reported, which magnetically eradicate an extreme range of pathogens in an extracorporeal circuit. It is quantitatively revealed that glycophorin A and complement receptor (CR) 1 on red blood cell (RBC)-MNVs predominantly capture human fecal bacteria, carbapenem-resistant (CR) Escherichia coli, and extended-spectrum beta-lactamases-positive (ESBL-positive) E. coli, vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (VISA), endotoxins, and proinflammatory cytokines in human blood. Additionally, CR3 and CR1 on white blood cell-MNVs mainly contribute to depleting the virus envelope proteins of Zika, SARS-CoV-2, and their variants in human blood. Supplementing opsonins into the blood significantly augments the pathogen removal efficiency due to its combinatorial interactions between pathogens and CR1 and CR3 on MNVs. The extracorporeal blood cleansing enables full recovery of lethally infected rodent animals within 7 days by treating them twice in series. It is also validated that parameters reflecting immune homeostasis, such as blood cell counts, cytokine levels, and transcriptomics changes, are restored in blood of the fatally infected rats after treatment.

Abstract
In late 2019, a novel betacoronavirus, later termed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was discovered in patients with an unknown respiratory illness in Wuhan, China. SARS-CoV-2 and the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), spread rapidly and resulted in the World Health Organization declaring a pandemic in March 2020. In a minority of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, severe illness develops characterized by a dysregulated immune response, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and multisystem organ failure. Despite the development of antiviral and multiple immunomodulatory therapies, outcomes of severe illness remain poor. In response, the Food and Drug Administration in the United States authorized the emergency use of several extracorporeal blood purification (EBP) devices for critically ill patients with COVID-19. Extracorporeal blood purification devices target various aspects of the host response to infection to reduce immune dysregulation. This review highlights the underlying technology, currently available literature on use in critically ill COVID-19 patients, and future studies involving four EBP platforms: 1) oXiris filter, 2) CytoSorb filter, 3) Seraph 100 Microbind blood affinity filter, and 4) the Spectra Optia Apheresis System with the Depuro D2000 Adsorption Cartridge.

Abstract
oXiris is a new, high-adsorption membrane filter in continuous hemofiltration adsorption to reduce the inflammatory response in sepsis. The investigators retrospectively reviewed patients with sepsis/septic shock who underwent at least one oXiris-treatment from November 2020 to March 2022. The demographic data, baseline levels before treatment, clinical datas, prognosis, and the occurrence of adverse events during treatment were recorded. 90 patients were enrolled in this study. The hemodynamic indices, sequential organ failure assessment score, lactate, inflammatory biomarkers levels were significantly improved at 12 h and 24 h after treatment. Procalcitonin and interleukin-6 reduction post-treatment of oXiris were most pronounced in infection from skin and soft tissue, urinary and abdominal cavity. Logistic regression analysis showed that pre-treatment sequential organ failure assessment score (p = 0.034), percentage decrease in sequential organ failure assessment score (p = 0.004), and age (p = 0.011) were independent risk factors for intensive care unit mortality. In conclusion, oXiris-continuous hemofiltration adsorption may improve hemodynamic indicators, reduce the use of vasoactive drugs, reduce lactate level and infection indicators. Of note, oXiris improve organ function in sepsis, which may result to higher survival rate.

Abstract
Critical clinical forms of COVID-19 infection often include Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), requiring kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in up to 20% of patients, further worsening the outcome of the disease. No specific medical therapies are available for the treatment of COVID-19, while supportive care remains the standard treatment with the control of systemic inflammation playing a pivotal role, avoiding the disease progression and improving organ function. Extracorporeal blood purification (EBP) has been proposed for cytokines removal in sepsis and could be beneficial in COVID-19, preventing the cytokines release syndrome (CRS) and providing Extra-corporeal organ support (ECOS) in critical patients. Different EBP procedures for COVID-19 patients have been proposed including hemoperfusion (HP) on sorbent, continuous kidney replacement therapy (CRRT) with adsorbing capacity, or the use of high cut-off (HCO) membranes. Depending on the local experience, the multidisciplinary capabilities, the hardware, and the available devices, EBP can be combined sequentially or in parallel. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate how to perform EBPs, providing practical support to extracorporeal therapies in COVID-19 patients with AKI.

Abstract
Hemoperfusion is an important method to remove endotoxins and save the lives of patients with sepsis. However, the current adsorbents for hemoperfusion have disadvantages of insufficient endotoxin adsorption capacity, poor blood compatibility, and so on. Herein, we proposed a novel emulsion templating (ET) method to prepare ultraporous and double-network carboxylated chitosan (CCS)-poly(diallyl dimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) hydrogel spheres (ET-CCSPD), bearing both negative and positive charges. CCS was introduced to balance the strong positive charges of PDDA to improve hemocompatibility, and emulsion templates endowed the adsorbent with an ultraporous structure for enhanced adsorption efficacy. The ET-CCSPDs neither damaged blood cells nor activated complement responses. In addition, the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was prolonged to 8.5 times, which was beneficial for reducing the injection of anticoagulant in patients. The ET-CCSPDs had excellent scavenging performance against bacteria and endotoxin, with removal ratios of 96.7% for E. coli and 99.8% for S. aureus, respectively, and the static removal ratio of endotoxin in plasma was as high as 99.1% (C0 = 5.50 EU/mL, critical illness level). An adsorption cartridge filled with the ET-CCSPDs could remove 84.7% of endotoxin within 1 h (C0 = 100 EU/mL in PBS). Interestingly, the ET-CCSPDs had a good inhibitory effect on the cytokines produced by endotoxin-mediated septic blood. By developing the ET method to prepare ultraporous and double-network adsorbents, the problems of low adsorption efficiency and poor blood compatibility of traditional endotoxin adsorbents have been solved, thus opening a new route to fabricate absorbents for blood purification.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that causes a global health burden associated with high mortality and morbidity. Often life-threatening, sepsis can be caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites or fungi. Sepsis management primarily focuses on source control and early broad-spectrum antibiotics, plus organ function support. Comprehensive changes in the way we manage sepsis patients include early identification, infective focus identification and immediate treatment with antimicrobial therapy, appropriate supportive care and hemodynamic optimization. Despite all efforts of clinical and experimental research over thirty years, the capacity to positively influence the outcome of the disease remains limited. This can be due to limited studies available on sepsis in developing countries, especially in Southeast Asia. This review summarizes the progress made in the diagnosis and time associated with sepsis, colistin resistance and chloramphenicol boon, antibiotic abuse, resource constraints and association of sepsis with COVID-19 in Southeast Asia. A personalized approach and innovative therapeutic alternatives such as CytoSorb® are highlighted as potential options for the treatment of patients with sepsis in Southeast Asia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited previous studies had proved that oXiris-continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) could decrease endotoxins and inflammatory factors, thereby improving circulation's stability. However, conclusive data are lacking regarding the comparison between oXiris membrane (with the function of removing endotoxins and decreasing inflammatory factors) and AN69 filters (with the only function of decreasing inflammatory) on the mortality of patients with septic shock. The potential mechanisms of oXiris that might influence the mortality of septic shock patients remain unexplored. METHODS This is a single-center, retrospective cohort study. The experimental group (30 patients with septic shock) was treated with oXiris-CVVH, and the control group (46 patients with septic shock) was treated with AN69 filter-CVVH. We employed the inverse probability of treatment-weighting method (IPTW), doubly robust estimation, and mediating effect analysis to analyze those clinical outcomes, with a special focus on the results of 28-day mortality, 72-h lactate, the need for norepinephrine (NE) in the next 72 h. RESULTS A total of 76 patients with septic shock who received blood purification therapies were enrolled. After IPTW, differences in patient characteristics have been minimized. The 28-day mortality in the control group is higher than in the treatment group (73.3% vs. 47.3%, p < 0.001; median survival time: 10 vs. ≥28 days, log-rank p = 0.0366). And the 25% decrease and the 50% decrease in demand for NE in the next 72 h are different between the treatment and control groups (median time of 25% decrease in demand: 24 vs. >72 h, log-rank p = 0.0126; median time of 50% decrease in demand: 24 vs. >72 h, log-rank p = 0.0322). The 72-h lactic acid level and white blood cell (WBC) counts in the oXiris group are lower than in the control group. The 72-h lactate fully mediated the effects of oXiris on 28-day mortality after confounds adjustment. CONCLUSIONS For septic shock patients, the use of oXiris-CVVH was associated with lower mortality and appeared to reduce lactate, NE dosage, PCT, and WBC counts, as compared to AN69-CVVH.

Abstract
Lemierre's syndrome refers to the septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein. The condition typically begins with an oropharyngeal infection and frequently involves inflammation within the wall of the vein, infected thrombus within the lumen, surrounding soft tissue inflammation, persistent bacteremia, and septic emboli. Lemierre's syndrome is a rare disease; it occurs most commonly in otherwise healthy young adults. The most common etiologic agent is Fusobacterium necrophorum. We present a case of Lemierre's syndrome in a young girl and the role of extracorporeal method of blood purification with continuous venous hemodiafiltration with the use of a highly adsorptive membrane (AN69 HeprAN), thus achieving the combined elimination of cytokines and endotoxins. The use of advanced methods, along with an antibiotic and surgical treatment, will certainly help reduce mortality in this syndrome.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Membrane fouling is a significant complication potentially reducing clinical effects of extracorporeal blood purification (EBP) in critically ill septic patients with acute kidney injury. Although fascinating, the effect of heparin coating in preventing membrane fouling is currently unknown. This multicenter prospective study aims to preliminary describe the incidence, associated factors, and clinical consequences of premature circuit clotting in a cohort of adult critically ill septic patients treated with EBP using a high biocompatible heparin-coated hemodiafilter characterized by advanced adsorption properties. METHODS This study was a retrospective analysis of prospectively entered data in the oXirisNet Registry; overall, 97 septic patients undergoing EBP with oXiris between May 2019 and March 2020 were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the occurrence of filter clotting (premature vs. nonpremature). Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with premature circuit clotting. RESULTS Premature clotting occurred in 18 (18.6%) patients. Results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that hematocrit (p = 0.02, odds ratio [OR] 1.15 [1.05; 1.30]), serum procalcitonin (PCT) (p = 0.03, OR 1.1 [1.05; 1.2]), and anticoagulation strategy (p = 0.05 at Wald's test) were independent predictors of circuit clotting. Systemic anticoagulation (p = 0.02, OR 0.03 [0.01; 0.52]) and regional citrate anticoagulation (p = 0.10, OR 0.23 [0.04; 1.50]) were both protective factors if compared to no-anticoagulation strategy. Patients with nonpremature circuit clotting showed more rapid recovery from hemodynamic instability, pulmonary hypo-oxygenation, and electrolyte disorders and greater improvement of inflammatory markers and SOFA scores. CONCLUSION Although in this study the incidence of premature circuit clotting was relatively low (18.6%) compared to previously reported values (54%), membrane clotting in adult critically ill septic patients could cause clinically relevant interferences with treatment performances. Prevention of clotting should be based on avoiding higher patients' hematocrit, high serum PCT, and no-anticoagulation strategy which resulted as independent predictors of circuit clotting.
