Effects of Renal Replacement Therapy With Hemoadsoption in Patients With Liver Failure

Hemoadsorption has been demonstrated to improve liver functional tests in patients with liver failure. The present study investigates the effects of three consecutive sessions of hemoadsorption, performed in accordance to the local protocol for treating patients with acute liver failure, on liver functional tests, severity scores and 30-days mortality. Paraclinical results and severity scores were obtained before and after the three consecutive sessions.
