Summary

This study will assess the influence of the High Cut-Off (HCO) CVVHD treatment on the disease progression in septic patients. The primary aim of the study is to evaluate whether HCO CVVHD leads to a significant improvement of the hemodynamic status (mean arterial pressure, vasopressor requirements) in septic patients in comparison to CVVHD treatment with conventional high-flux filters. For the HCO-group the investigators expect a 50% lower dosage of vasopressors needed to maintain an adequate organ perfusion.

Conditions

  • Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome
  • Kidney Failure, Acute

Interventions

DEVICE

continuous venovenous hemodialysis

dialysate flow rate 35 ml/h/kg. Blood flow rate should be aimed at 200 ml/min, but not less than 150 ml/min. Bicarbonate- or lactate-buffered solutions will be used as dialysis fluids. Study dialyzers will be changed routinely every 24 h or earlier if the filter is obstructed by clotting.
