Overview

Elimination methods can improve the prognosis of critically ill patients in sepsis. With respect to that, higher activation of monocytes duringplasmapheresis could possibly play a role (increase of HLA-DR+ monocytes in peripheral blood). We observed a decrease of T lymphocyte activationin 19 patients after 24 hours of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration –⁠ CVVH (p
