ABSTRACT: Background
Rhabdomyolysis is a serious condition that can lead to acute kidney injury with the need of renal replacement therapy (RRT). The cytokine adsorber Cytosorb® (CS) can be used for extracorporeal myoglobin elimination in patients with rhabdomyolysis. However, data on adsorption capacity and saturation kinetics are still missing.Methods
The prospective Cyto-SOLVE study (NCT04913298) included 20 intensive care unit patients with severe rhabdomyolysis (plasma myoglobin > 5000 ng/ml), RRT due to acute kidney injury and the use of CS for myoglobin elimination. Myoglobin and creatine kinase (CK) were measured in the patient´s blood and pre- and post-CS at defined time points (ten minutes, one, three, six, and twelve hours after initiation). We calculated Relative Change (
