Area of Science:

  • Hepatology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Critical Care Medicine

Background:

  • ExtraCorporeal Liver Support (ECLS) systems aim to aid liver detoxification by removing toxic molecules.
  • Liver failure necessitates interventions to manage the accumulation of harmful substances.
  • Evaluating the efficacy of different ECLS techniques is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the detoxification efficacy of various ECLS systems in patients with liver failure.
  • To assess the performance of CytoSorb against other extracorporeal techniques.
  • To determine the most effective ECLS device for improving patient outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective comparative analysis of patients treated with different ECLS techniques.
  • Calculation of mass balance (MB) and adsorption per hour for total bilirubin (TB), direct bilirubin (DB), and bile acids (BA).
  • Comparison of CytoSorb with CPFA, MARS, Prometheus, and PAP.

Main Results:

  • CytoSorb exhibited superior adsorption capabilities for TB, DB, and BA.
  • Mass balance and adsorption per hour calculations confirmed CytoSorb's enhanced performance.
  • The study identified significant differences in purification effectiveness among the evaluated ECLS systems.

Conclusions:

  • Extracorporeal purification is a potentially valuable therapy for liver failure.
  • CytoSorb demonstrated superior performance compared to CPFA, MARS, Prometheus, and PAP.
  • CytoSorb may be the preferred ECLS device for treating liver failure due to its enhanced detoxification abilities.
