SAN DIEGO, FEB 14-17, 2012<br />
Background: High-volume<br />
hemofiltrati<strong>on</strong> (HVHF) may improve the<br />
prognosis of patients by n<strong>on</strong>-selective<br />
removal of inflammatory mediators and<br />
cytokines and reducing the systemic<br />
inflammatory resp<strong>on</strong>se <strong>on</strong> organ<br />
damage. Since the timing of HVHF may<br />
impacts <strong>on</strong> the prognosis of the patients,<br />
early interventi<strong>on</strong> of HVHF is very<br />
crucial. Objective: To assess the effects<br />
of the timing of HVHF <strong>on</strong> the elderly<br />
patients with septic shock.<br />
Methods: 21 cases of elderly patients<br />
with septic shock (mean age 78 ± 6.8<br />
years) were observed. According to the<br />
timing of HVHF (the rate of UF was<br />
6ml/kg/hr ),those patients were divided<br />
into two groups,Group A (n = 8) treated<br />
with HVHF during early 6 hours<br />
resuscitati<strong>on</strong> and Group B (13 cases)<br />
treated with HVHF after early 6 hours<br />
resuscitati<strong>on</strong>.The effects to be studied of<br />
HVHF were the changes of vital signs,<br />
the difference of APACHE-Ⅱ score,<br />
SOFA score, the dosage of vasoactive<br />
drugs in h, 24h, 48h, 72h and the<br />
survival cases of 28 days. Results:<br />
Treated with HVHF after 24h, 48h,<br />
72h, APACHE-Ⅱ score in group A<br />
and group B were (23.5 ± 4.8,18.5 ±<br />
4.,18.1 ± 4.3) and 26.8±4.2,<br />
24.3±3.8、23.8±5.1)(P
