Polymyxin B hemoperfusion: a mechanistic perspective
Direct hemoperfusion therapy with polymyxin B immobilized fiber cartridge (PMX-DHP) is an established strategy in the treatment of septic shock in Japan and parts of Western Europe. PMX-DHP is currently the subject of a pivotal North American randomized controlled trial (EUPHRATES) in patients with septic shock and confirmed endotoxemia, as measured by the endotoxin activity assay. The major me...
متن کاملPolymyxin B Hemoperfusion for Septic Shock -- Ready for Primetime? Early Use of Polymyxin B Hemoperfusion in Abdominal Septic Shock: The EUPHAS Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Treatments for severe sepsis are limited, and its morbidity and mortality, especially from Gramnegative organisms, continues to be significant. Gram-negative organisms release endotoxin, which initiates inflammatory and coagulation cascades, resulting in end-organ dysfunction in patients. Polymyxin B hemoperfusion filters bind endotoxin. Objective: To assess the efficacy of polymyxi...
متن کاملPolymyxin B-immobilized fiber column hemoperfusion therapy for septic shock.
Endotoxin, an outer membrane component of gram-negative bacteria, plays an important role in the pathogenesis of septic shock. Endotoxin adsorption therapy by polymyxin B-immobilized fiber column hemoperfusion (PMX) has been used for the treatment of septic shock patients in Japan since 1994. The covalent binding of polymyxin B onto the surface of the polystyrene-based carrier fiber in PMX inac...
متن کاملEarly use of polymyxin B hemoperfusion in abdominal septic shock: the EUPHAS randomized controlled trial.
CONTEXT Polymyxin B fiber column is a medical device designed to reduce blood endotoxin levels in sepsis. Gram-negative-induced abdominal sepsis is likely associated with high circulating endotoxin. Reducing circulating endotoxin levels with polymyxin B hemoperfusion could potentially improve patient clinical outcomes. OBJECTIVE To determine whether polymyxin B hemoperfusion added to conventi...
متن کاملPolymyxin B-immobilized fiber column hemoperfusion treatment for drug-induced severe respiratory failure: report of three cases.
The effects of direct hemoperfusion with polymyxin B-immobilized fiber (PMX-DHP) treatment for acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia have been reported. Here, we report 3 severe cases of drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DI-ILD) that were treated with PMX-DHP. Two DI-ILD cases were caused by methotrexate, and the third case was caused by the herbal medicine sanmotsu-ogon-to. The ar...
