The purpose of this study was to retrospectively analyze the efficiency of replacement renal therapy (RRT) in multimodality treatment for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) concurrent with a systemic inflammatory response and multiple organ failure/dysfunction. The authors analyzed the results of treating 55 patients (14 women and 41 men) aged 22 to 72 years (mean 43.5 +/- 16.4 years) treated at the intensive care units of Moscow City Clinical Hospital Fifty-Two in January 1, 2000, to December 31, 2006. All the patients had multiple organ dysfunctions with the involvement of 2 to 5 organs (median 4 (3; 4) and were on RRT. RRT may be successfully used in multimodality treatment for SAP provided that the dose of dialysis is at least 35 ml/kg/hour. The severe condition rated by the APACHE HII and SAPS II scales and the dialysis dose of less than 35 ml/kg/hour are independent risk factors of death in SAP patients.
