Polymyxin B-immobilized fiber (PMX-F) columns are used as therapeutic interventions for septic shock. The clinical efficacy has been reported for 2-h applications, but their ability to adsorb endotoxin over longer treatments has not been fully elucidated. We hypothesized that PMX-F columns are capable of endotoxin removal for more than 2 h.
We designed closed circuits incorporating either a PMX-F column with an 8.5-mL priming volume (PMX-01R) or a sham-control column, and used inactivated fetal bovine serum as the circulating perfusate. Endotoxin was continuously injected at a fixed rate for 24 h, and perfusate endotoxin concentrations were measured at fixed time points. PMX-01R endotoxin adsorption was calculated from the difference in the endotoxin concentrations.
PMX-01R endotoxin adsorption increased continuously in a virtually linear manner.
The PMX-01R column showed sustained endotoxin adsorption for at least 24 h. This indicated that PMX-F columns would be capable of clinical endotoxin removal for 24 h.
多粘菌素 B 固定纤维(PMX-F)柱被用作治疗感染性休克的干预措施。已有关于 2 小时应用的临床疗效报告,但它们在更长时间的治疗中吸附内毒素的能力尚未完全阐明。我们假设 PMX-F 柱能够在超过 2 小时的时间内去除内毒素。
我们设计了闭合回路,其中包含一个带有 8.5 毫升预充体积的 PMX-F 柱(PMX-01R)或假对照柱,并使用灭活胎牛血清作为循环灌流液。以内毒素以固定速率连续注射 24 小时,并在固定时间点测量灌流液内毒素浓度。PMX-01R 内毒素吸附通过内毒素浓度的差异计算得出。
PMX-01R 对内毒素的吸附呈连续且近乎线性增加。
PMX-01R 柱至少在 24 小时内显示出持续的内毒素吸附能力。这表明 PMX-F 柱能够在 24 小时内进行临床内毒素清除。
