AbstractExtracorporeal albumin dialysis (ECAD) represents a supplemental therapy for patients with liver failure. Most experience was gained with the molecular adsorbent recirculating system (MARS). However, the ADVanced Organ Support (ADVOS) system was recently introduced. This study aims to compare effects of MARS and ADVOS on biochemical and clinical parameters in critically ill patients with liver failure using a retrospective analysis of ECAD at Jena University Hospital. Laboratory parameters, health scoring values, and need for transfusion were recorded before and after treatment. Generalized estimating equations were used to account for repeated measurements of multiple ECAD cycles per patient. Between 2012 and 2017, n = 75 MARS and n = 58 ADVOS cycles were evaluated. Although ADVOS runs significantly longer, both devices provided comparable reduction rates of bilirubin (MARS: −48 [−80.5 to −18.5] μmol/L vs ADVOS: −35 [−87.8 to −2.0] μmol/L, P = .194), a surrogate for detoxification capacity, while urea and lactate levels were more significantly lowered by the ADVOS system. In cycles with similar treatment times, both systems provided comparable reduction rates for bilirubin, renal replacement, coagulation, and metabolic parameters. Citrate was the preferred anticoagulant in case of bleeding. Neither bleeding tendency nor fibrinogen levels or platelets were altered by the type of anticoagulation. No adverse events were reported, but two sessions (one MARS and one ADVOS) were terminated early due to filter clotting. Experience is needed in the application of ADVOS and more prospective trials comparing the detoxification capacity of ECAD devices are needed to support and enlarge the findings of the current evaluation.
