Comparative Study[Systemic hemodynamics in constant hemofiltration in patients with septic shock].
Hemodiafiltration (HDF) is a method of pathogenetic therapy for the systemic inflammatory response syndrome in patients with sepsis and shock irrespective of renal failure. Systemic hemodynamics was examined in 18 patients with septic shock treated by HDF (2 groups). ⋯ An opposite tendency was observed in group 2 (refractory shock). Despite high (72.2%) mortality which was mainly caused by the progress of multiple organ dysfunction or untimely surgical intervention, it is obvious that HDF created conditions for surviving the critical period of disease in patients with progressive sepsis.
