Brief Summary

The use of extracorporeal blood purification therapies (EBPT) is becoming increasingly widespread worldwide in everyday clinical practice, particularly in the critical care setting. Nonetheless, most of the clinical trials aimed at exploring the effect of EBPT on patients' long-term outcomes have failed to demonstrate consistent results regarding 28 day- or hospital- mortality rates. The aim of this observational prospective registry is to evaluate if there is a cluster of critically ill patients that mostly benefits from extracorporeal blood purification therapies with different EBPTs.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Identification of the subpopulation of critically ill patients that most benefits from EBPTs.

    This subpopulation will be described using the baseline variables associated with a positive long-term patient's outcome. In particular baseline variables statistically associated through multivariable stepwise analyses with the patient's survival at hospital discharge will be identified and expressed with their Odds ratios, 95%CI and p-value

    10 days after EBPT initiation

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Description of the over-time variation of clinical variables during EBPs

    10 days after EBPT initiation

Study Arms (1)

Critically ill patients

In centres that obtained IRB approval for this prospective study, all critically ill patients undergoing EBPTs for support/replacement renal function or immunomodulation will be prospectively observed.

Device: Commercial membrane for Extracorporeal Blood Purification Therapy (EBPT)

Interventions

Every center will prescribe EBPT with commercial membranes in accordance with local practice and local levels of expertise. No variation in treatment prescription and/or treatment solutions will derive from participation in this prospective observational study. Nonetheless, every setting parameter will be recorded in the web-based registry and analyzed a-posteriori to reveal a potential correlation with the patient outcomes.

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

All critically ill patients undergoing EBPT in the enrolling centers will be prospectively observed. Although acute kidney injury will be mostly present among the enrolled population, it will be not strictly required as an inclusion criterion. Similarly, although sepsis will be frequently observed, the systemic inflammatory state leading to multiorgan dysfunction and supported by these extracorporeal treatments might have several different etiologies, such as ischemia-reperfusion, severe acute pancreatitis, intoxication, etc. (i.e. "sepsis-like syndromes").

You may qualify if:

  • critically ill patients in the ICU
  • one of this EPB therapy:
  • CRRT/IHD/Hybrid therapies for support//replacement renal function
  • immunomodulation achieved by "high cut-off membranes", "endotoxins and/or cytokines adsorbent membranes" or by high-volume hemofiltration

You may not qualify if:

  • patients treated only by Cytosorb® and/or Toraymyxin® therapies
