Hemoadsorption therapy for myoglobin removal in rhabdomyolysis: consensus of the hemoadsorption in rhabdomyolysis task force. BMC Nephrol 2024; 25:247. [PMID: 39085790 PMCID: PMC11293130 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-024-03679-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhabdomyolysis describes a syndrome characterized by muscle necrosis and the subsequent release of creatine kinase and myoglobin into the circulation. Myoglobin elimination with extracorporeal hemoadsorption has been shown to effectively remove myoglobin from the circulation. Our aim was to provide best practice consensus statements developed by the Hemoadsorption in Rhabdomyolysis Task Force (HRTF) regarding the use of hemadsorption for myoglobin elimination. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed until 11th of January 2023, after which the Rhabdomyolysis RTF was assembled comprising international experts from 6 European countries. Online conferences were held between 18th April - 4th September 2023, during which 37 consensus questions were formulated and using the Delphi process, HRTF members voted online on an anonymised platform. In cases of 75 to 90% agreement a second round of voting was performed. RESULTS Using the Delphi process on the 37 questions, strong consensus (> 90% agreement) was achieved in 12, consensus (75 to 90% agreement) in 10, majority (50 to 74%) agreement in 13 and no consensus (< 50% agreement) in 2 cases. The HRTF formulated the following recommendations: (1) Myoglobin contributes to the development of acute kidney injury; (2) Patients with myoglobin levels of > 10,000 ng/ml should be considered for extracorporeal myoglobin removal by hemoadsorption; (3) Hemoadsorption should ideally be started within 24 h of admission; (4) If myoglobin cannot be measured then hemoadsorption may be indicated based on clinical picture and creatinine kinase levels; (5) Cartridges should be replaced every 8-12 h until myoglobin levels < 10,000 ng/ml; (6) In patients with acute kidney injury, hemoadsorption can be discontinued before dialysis is terminated and should be maintained until the myoglobin concentration values are consistently < 5000 ng/ml. CONCLUSIONS The current consensus of the HRTF support that adjuvant hemoadsorption therapy in severe rhabdomyolysis is both feasible and safe and may be an effective method to reduce elevated circulating levels of myoglobin.

Abstract
Severe rhabdomyolysis frequently results in acute kidney injury (AKI) due to myoglobin accumulation with the need of kidney replacement therapy (KRT). The present study investigated whether the application of Cytosorb® (CS) led to an increased rate of kidney recovery in patients with KRT due to severe rhabdomyolysis. Adult patients with a myoglobin-concentration >10,000 ng/ml and KRT were included from 2014 to 2021. Exclusion criteria were chronic kidney disease and CS-treatment before study inclusion. Groups 1 and 2 were defined as KRT with and without CS, respectively. The primary outcome parameter was independence from KRT after 30 days. Propensity score (PS) matching was performed (predictors: myoglobin, SAPS-II, and age), and the chi2-test was used. 35 pairings could be matched (mean age: 57 vs. 56 years; mean myoglobin: 27,218 vs. 26,872 ng/ml; mean SAPS-II: 77 vs. 76). The probability of kidney recovery was significantly (p = .04) higher in group 1 (31.4 vs. 11.4%, mean difference: 20.0%, odds ratio (OR): 3.6). Considering patients who survived 30 days, kidney recovery was also significantly (p = .03) higher in patients treated with CS (61.1 vs. 23.5%, mean difference: 37.6%, OR: 5.1). In conclusion, the use of CS might positively affect renal recovery in patients with severe rhabdomyolysis. A prospective randomized controlled trial is needed to confirm this hypothesis.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that causes a global health burden associated with high mortality and morbidity. Often life-threatening, sepsis can be caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites or fungi. Sepsis management primarily focuses on source control and early broad-spectrum antibiotics, plus organ function support. Comprehensive changes in the way we manage sepsis patients include early identification, infective focus identification and immediate treatment with antimicrobial therapy, appropriate supportive care and hemodynamic optimization. Despite all efforts of clinical and experimental research over thirty years, the capacity to positively influence the outcome of the disease remains limited. This can be due to limited studies available on sepsis in developing countries, especially in Southeast Asia. This review summarizes the progress made in the diagnosis and time associated with sepsis, colistin resistance and chloramphenicol boon, antibiotic abuse, resource constraints and association of sepsis with COVID-19 in Southeast Asia. A personalized approach and innovative therapeutic alternatives such as CytoSorb® are highlighted as potential options for the treatment of patients with sepsis in Southeast Asia.

Hemadsorption as rescue therapy for patients with multisystem organ failure in pediatric intensive care-Two case reports and review of the literature. Artif Organs 2021; 45:1582-1593. [PMID: 34331775 PMCID: PMC9291205 DOI: 10.1111/aor.14047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2021] [Revised: 07/04/2021] [Accepted: 07/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Hemadsorption via the cytokine‐adsorber CytoSorb (CytoSorbents Europe, Berlin, Germany) has successfully been used as an adjunctive method in adults, mainly for the purpose of immunomodulation under acute inflammatory conditions such as sepsis and cardiac surgery. In recent years, there has been growing interest in its use in pediatric intensive care to improve outcomes in patients with multiple organ failure following an inflammatory illness. Literature on the application of CytoSorb in neonatal and pediatric patients is scarce, though the implication is that it could be an effective last‐resort treatment option in critically ill pediatric patients. Herein we present the clinical cases of two pediatric patients successfully treated with a combination of the CytoSorb hemadsorber, continuous renal replacement therapy, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation due to multiple organ failure following different underlying medical conditions. Patient 1 was a 7‐month‐old male child with Down's syndrome admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) after congenital heart surgery, who developed antimicrobial‐resistant septic shock and severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. Patient 2 was a 2‐year‐old male child admitted to the PICU with influenza A‐associated acute liver failure resulting in hyperammonemia, lactate acidosis, hemodynamic instability, and acute kidney failure. In both patients, hemadsorption with CytoSorb was initiated as an adjunctive rescue therapy to treat refractory multisystem organ failure. Improvement of laboratory and clinical parameters was observed within hours of treatment initiation. The application of the hemadsorber—developed for use in adults—proved simple and safe for use in both of our low‐weight pediatric patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to compare the efficacy of antiviral drug alone and antiviral-antibiotic combination therapy in prevention of complications associated with influenza B hospitalized patients. METHOD Laboratory confirmed influenza B hospitalized patients presented in emergency room after 48 hours of symptoms onset were identified and divided into two groups; Group-1 patients were initiated on Antiviral drug (oseltamivir) alone while Group-2 patients were initiated on Antiviral drug (oseltamivir) in combination with Antibiotic for at least 3 days. Patients were evaluated for different clinical outcomes among both treatment group. RESULTS A total of 153 and 131 patients were identified for Group-1 and Group-2, respectively. Clinical outcomes such as secondary bacterial infections (20.9%-vs-9.1%; P = 0.031), need of respiratory support (28.7%-vs-12.9%; P = 0.002), length of hospitalization stay (6.57-vs-4.95 days; P = <0.001), incidences of ICU admission (15.7%-vs-7.6%; P = 0.036), early clinical failure (32.6%-vs-16.1%; P = 0.01), and time to clinical stability (4.83-vs-4.1 days; P = 0.001) were found to be statistically less significant (P-value <0.05) for Group-2 patients. CONCLUSION Early initiation of antibiotic therapy in combination with oseltamivir was found to be more efficacious than oseltamivir alone in prevention of influenza B-associated complications especially in high-risk influenza patients.

CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2021; 25:41. [PMID: 33509234 PMCID: PMC7844984 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-021-03468-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2020] [Accepted: 01/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhabdomyolysis is frequently occurring in critically ill patients, resulting in a high risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) and potentially permanent kidney damage due to increased myoglobin levels. The extracorporeal elimination of myoglobin might be an approach to prevent AKI, but its molecular weight of 17 kDa complicates an elimination with conventional dialysis membranes. Question of interest is, if myoglobin can be successfully eliminated with the cytokine adsorber Cytosorb® (CS) integrated in a high-flux dialysis system. METHODS Patients were included between 10/2014 and 05/2020 in the study population if they had an anuric renal failure with the need of renal replacement therapy, if CS therapy was longer than 90 min and if myoglobin level was > 5.000 ng/ml before treatment. The measurement times of the laboratory values were: d-1 = 24-36 h before CS, d0 = shortly before starting CS and d1 = 12-24 h after starting CS treatment. Statistical analysis were performed with Spearman's correlation coefficient, Wilcoxon test with associated samples and linear regression analysis. RESULTS Forty-three patients were included in the evaluation (median age: 56 years, 77% male patients, 32.6% ECMO therapy, median SAPS II: 80 points and in-hospital mortality: 67%). There was a significant equilateral correlation between creatine kinase (CK) and myoglobin at all measurement points. Furthermore, there was a significant reduction of myoglobin (p = 0.03, 95% confidence interval (CI): - 9030, - 908 ng/ml) during CS treatment, with a median relative reduction of 29%. A higher median reduction of 38% was seen in patients without ongoing rhabdomyolysis (CK decreased during CS treatment, n = 21). In contrast, myoglobin levels did not relevantly change in patients with increasing CK and therefore ongoing rhabdomyolysis (n = 22, median relative reduction 4%). Moreover, there was no significant difference in myoglobin elimination in patients with and without ECMO therapy. CONCLUSION Blood purification with Cytosorb® during high-flux dialysis led to a significant reduction of myoglobin in patients with severe rhabdomyolysis. The effect might be obscured by sustained rhabdomyolysis, which was seen in patients with rising CK during treatment. Prospective clinical trials would be useful in investigating its benefits in avoiding permanent kidney damage.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a severe complication of rhabdomyolysis. The pathophysiology of rhabdomyolysis-associated AKI is complex, but myoglobin related damage plays a major role. Extracorporeal removal of myoglobin is therefore an appealing target to prevent AKI, however, attempts to remove myoglobin with standard dialysis membranes have so far been disappointing. Here we report the case of a 12-year-old boy with severe trauma-related rhabdomyolysis where we successfully utilized continuous renal replacement therapy in combination with Cytosorb® to eliminate myoglobin and prevent AKI. The early use of extracorporeal myoglobin removal with Cytosorb® after severe rhabdomyolysis might be an option and should be further investigated as a tool to prevent the development of AKI.

Abstract
This article reports the case of a 42-year-old male patient, who sustained a gluteal compartment syndrome after drug-induced immobilization with subsequent rhabdomyolysis and sciatic nerve palsy. Unlike compartment syndrome of the forearm or lower leg, this is a rare condition. After immediate surgical decompression and installation of negative pressure wound treatment, hemofiltration in acute renal failure could be averted using forced diuresis. The sensorimotor function of the lower extremity improved already after the first treatment and secondary wound closure was possible after 1 week. The patient was discharged 11 days after admission with complete recovery of sensorimotor and renal functions.
