HYPERHOMOCYSTEINEMIA CORRECTION AT SEPSIS

Homocystein is one of cytotoxic metabolites formed in case of sepsis. In the given research homocysteine level in healthy people and septic patients is being studied. Homocysteine content has been found out to be twice higher in septic patients than in healthy people. Hemosorption sessions with the use of the biospecific hemosorbent “Ovosorb” were performed to correct hyperhomocysteinemia. They permitted to decrease homocysteine level up to the normal one. Application of hemosorbtion with the use of the hemosorbent “Ovosorb” permits to normalize leukocyte content in the blood as well as to reduce the burden of patients’ state and the treatment duration at the resuscitation department.

Keywords: sepsis, homocysteine, hemosorbtion
