Clinical Trial Summary

In recent years, many studies have pointed out that bacterial toxin and cytokine storm are the main causes of shock and multiple organ failure in patients with sepsis. Endotoxin is the main vehicle for systemic inflammatory reaction caused by gram-negative bacteria which induce sepsis. Endotoxin binds to Toll- Like receptor 4 (TLR4) trigger a cytokine storm. The amount of endotoxin is associated with shock, insufficient intestinal perfusion, and poor prognosis. Therefore, clinicians try to use various methods to antagonize the action of endotoxin, which can reduce the cytokine storm and inflammatory response to improve the prognosis of sepsis. Continuous venous venous hemofiltration plays a role in blood purification in septic shock. With different hemofiltration filters, it has different effects. By removing the inflammatory mediators caused by bacterial toxins and cytokines, shock can be improved. The study plans to receive patients with septic shock and use a hemofiltration filter that adsorbs endotoxin and removes cytokines (oXiris, Baxter Healthcare) to perform continuous venous venous hemofiltration in addition to basic septic shock resuscitation. The effect on the concentration of cytokines in the blood, the infusion dose of inotropics, the fluid balances, and the degree of organ damage was evaluated. It is hoped that the results of this pilot study can lead us to subsequent randomized clinical trials to explore whether this filter can improve the prognosis of septic shock patients.
