Effect of hemosorption on kidney function in patients with destructive pancreatitis

: In patients with acute destructive pancreatitis, the kidney lesion is conditioned by pronounced volemic disorders, and damage of renal parenchyma resulting from the action of enzymes and toxic metabolites as well. Their effective elimination by means of hemosorption performed in supplementation of the circulating blood and plasma volumes leads to rapid normalization of functional state of the kidneys, thus facilitating reduction of lethality, shortening of the duration of treatment and rehabilitation of the patients. In destructive pancreatitis, the performance of repeated hemosorption after 24-48 h is indicated.
