ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expression of pro-irtilammatory mediator in peripheral blood of patients with severe sepsis treated by different therapeutic dose of high-volume hemofiltration (HVHF). Methods According to the standard of severe sepsis, 83 cases were randomly divided into three groups, A group [60 ml/(kg·h)], S group[80 ml/(kg·h)], C group[100 ml/(kg·h)], respectively. The levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-8 in plasma of patients were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before treatment and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 h after treatment, and the grades of APACHEⅢ were evaluated at every time-point simultaneously. Results The grades of APACHEⅢ were lower after treatment than those before treatment (P<0.05), but the decreases between every group had no significant deviation (P>0.05). The levels of TNF-Ⅲ, IL-1, IL-8 in plasma of patients were all decreased gradually after treatment. Compared with those before treatment, the levels of TNF-α,IL-1 and IL-8 at 2, 4 and 6 h after HVHF were obviously decreased (P<0.05). The levels of TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-8 were lightly increases at 4 and 6 h after HVHF, but they were lower that those before treatment (P<0.05). At every time-point, the levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-8 trended to decrease following the increase, of displacement liquid volume, the mean levels of pro-inflammatory mediator in C group were markedly reduced compared with the levels in A group (P<0.05). Conclusion HVHF can decrease the levels of pro-inflammatory mediator in peripheral blood of patients with severe sepsis and the grades of APACHEⅢ, the more the therapeutic dose of HVHF, the lower the levels of pro-inflammatory mediator.
