Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2)

    Change in arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2) in units of millimeter mercury (mmHg)

    24 hours after start of HVHDF

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • The ratio of arterial oxygen pressure to the fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/ FiO2 ratio)

    0 hour, 24 hours, and 48 hours after start of HVHDF

  • Ventilatory function

    0 hour, 24 hours, and 48 hours after start of HVHDF

  • The duration for weaning from mechanical ventilation (MV)

    28 days

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Interleukin-6

    0 hour, 24 hours, and 48 hours after start of HVHDF

Study Arms (2)

Group A (controlled group)

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

They will not receive HVHDF treatment

Other: controlled

Group B (HVHDF group)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

They will receive HVHDF treatment for 48 hours. HVHDF will be performed via indwelling central venous catheter. The blood flow will be 180-240 ml/min, and ultrafiltration rate will be 70 ml/kg/h during HVHF. The substitute fluid will be infused with pre-dilution. Heparin will be used for anti-coagulation, whose initial dose will be 15-25 U/kg, and maintenance dose is 5-15 U/kg/h. aPTT time maintained between 60-80 second and will be checked every 12 hours. The survival status of all of the subjects were followed up at 28 days after being diagnosed as severe sepsis.

Other: HVHDF

Interventions

HVHDFOTHER

Patients will receive HVHDF treatment for 48 hours. HVHDF will be performed via indwelling central venous catheter.

Heparin will be used for anti-coagulation, whose initial dose will be 15-25 U/kg, and maintenance dose is 5-15 U/kg/h. aPTT time maintained between 60-80 second and will be checked every 12 hours.

Group B (HVHDF group)

Patients will receive the usual care

  • Mental clouding: decreased glasco coma scale GCS \< 15
  • Hypotension: Systolic blood pressure \< 100 mmgH
  • Tachypnea: respiratory rate \> 22 breath/ minute Then serum lactate is analysed to confirm sepsis hypoperfusion if ≥ 2mmol/L

  • Organ dysfunctions are defined as following:
  • Respiratory dysfunction (criteria for ARDS):
  • PaO2/FiO2 \<200
  • Bilateral infiltrates in chest X-ray
  • Resistant hypoxemia
  • Tachypnoea (RR \> 40 breath/minute)
  • The need for invasive mechanical ventilation
  • Excluded cardiac causes of pulmonary edema
  • CNS failure:
  • +18 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient relatives' refusal
  • Pregnancy
  • Recent active internal hemorrhage
  • Not mechanically ventilated.
  • Hypersensitivity to the dialyser fluid
