  1. Plasma Exchange and Plasmapheresis in Septic Shock and Acute Kidney Injury James D. Fortenberry MD, FCCM, FAAP Associate Professor of Pediatrics Emory University School of Medicine Director, Critical Care Medicine and Pediatric ECMO/Advanced Technologies Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston

  2. The Problem of Sepsis in Children • 42,000 pediatric sepsis cases/year • Annual cost > $2 billion • Increased mortality 5.49.5/100,000 • 10.3% hospitalized pediatric sepsis mortality rate overall in US = the potential target

  3. Overwhelming Sepsis: Desperate Times… Diseases desperate grown By desperate appliance are relieved, Or not at all. -Claudius, King of Denmark In Hamlet Act IV Scene 3 W. Shakespeare

  4. Desperate but Reasonable?

  5. Potential “Desperate Devices”For Extracorporeal Use In Sepsis • Continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRT) • Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) • Extracorporeal liver support devices • Plasma Exchange/Plasmapheresis

  6. Extracorporeal Therapies in Septic Shock • Potential benefits • Immunohomeostasis: pro/anti-inflammatory mediators • Control of fluid overload • Mechanical support of organ perfusion during acute episode • Improved coagulation response with decreased organ thrombosis

  7. Mechanisms of Sepsis and Multiple Organ Failure • Death still related to development of MOF • Net effect: conversion of anticoagulant/profibrinolytic state procoagulant/antifibrinolytic state • Microvascular coagulation • Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) • Link with sepsis: Platelet/vWf microthrombipredispose to MOF

  8. Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (TTP): A TMA Syndrome • Critical defect: ADAMTS-13 deficiency (< 10% of normal) • Ultra-large vWf multimer-platelet thrombi • Microthrombotic multi-organ vascular injury • AKI central injury

  9. ADAMTS-13 • ADAMTS-13 = A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease with ThromboSpondin type 1 motif • “The molecule formerly known as vWf-CP” = a “good” molecule • Cleaves vWf multimers, reduces thrombogenic potential

  14. Benefits of Plasma Exchange in TTP • Has resulted in remarkable improvement in outcome • 80-90% mortality  10% • Replenishes ADAMTS-13 • Removes ADAMTS-13 inhibitors • Removes thrombogenic ULvWf multimers -Rock, NEJM 1991

  15. ADAMTS-13 Deficiency Is Also Seen in Adult Sepsis -Martin et al., Crit Care Med 2007

  16. Decreased Sepsis Survival with Decreased ADAMTS-13 Above median Below median -Martin et al., Crit Care Med 2007

  17. ADAMTS-13 Deficiency Correlates with Organ Failure

  18. ADAMTS-13 Deficiency Seen in Pediatric Sepsis -Nguyen, Hematologica 2006

  19. Thrombocytopenia and MOF • New-onset thrombocytopenia is independent risk factor for MOF (Carcillo 2001) • OR 11.9 • Thrombocytopenia with MOF increased death (OR 6.3) vs. MOF alone

  20. Thrombocytopenia-Associated Multiple Organ Failure (TAMOF) • Recently described entity (Nguyen, Carcillo 2001) • Children • MOF>2 organs • Platelet count < 100K • Similarities to TTP • Primarily secondary to sepsis • High mortality • Deficient ADAMTS-13 • Increased ADAMTS-13 antibodies • Increased ul-vWf multimers

  22. Could plasma exchange be beneficial in severe sepsis and MOF/AKI?

  23. Peak Concentration Model of Sepsis

  24. Controlled Trials: Plasma Therapies and Sepsis

  25. Plasmapheresis in Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock • PRCT, Russian adult ICU • 106 sepsis patients randomized to: • Standard therapy • Addition of plasmapheresis (1/2 FFP, 1/2 albumin) • Decreased mortality with plasma exchange * - Busund et al., Intensive Care Medicine 2002;28:1410

  26. TAMOF In Children: CHP Trial • 10 children with TAMOF • Decreased ADAMTS-13 (mean 33.3% of normal) • Randomized trial: stopped after 10 patients: 28-day survival • 1/5 standard therapy • 5/5 plasma exchange (p < .05) -Nguyen, Carcillo et al., CCM 2008

  27. Children’s of Pittsburgh-Pediatric TAMOF Trial -Nguyen, Carcillo et al., CCM 2008

  28. Plasma Exchange Replenishes ADAMTS-13 -Nguyen, Carcillo et al., CCM 2008

  29. Plasma Therapies • Plasmapheresis: plasma removed  replaced with 5% albumin • Plasma exchange: plasma removed  replaced with donor plasma • centrifugation • filtration

  30. Plasma Therapy: Centrifugation COBE Spectra Apheresis System

  31. Plasma Therapy: Filtration B Braun Diapact

  32. Why Not Plasma Infusion Alone? Plasma Infusion Restores procoagulant factors Restores anticoagulant factors (protein C, AT III, TFP-I) Restores prostacyclin Restores tPA Restores ADAMTS-13 Requires additional volume Plasma Exchange Restores factor homeostasis as per plasma infusion In addition: Removes ADAMTS-13 inhibitors Removes ultra-large vWF multimers Removes tissue factor Removes excess PAI-1 Maintains fluid balance during procedure

  33. Course of Organ Dysfunction and TMA: Plasma Infusion vs. Plasma Exchange • 36 adult TMA patients • Decreased mortality with plasma exchange • Plasma infusion group received larger volume of plasma • Plasma infusion group had larger weight gain * - Darmon et al., Crit Care Med, 2006

  34. Pediatric Patients Receiving CVVHFluid Overload Increases Mortality - Foland, Fortenberry et al., CCM 2004

  35. Plasma Exchange vs. Infusion: Weight Gain - Darmon et al., Crit Care Med, 2006

  36. TAMOF in Children: Further Studies • 10 institution pediatric multicenter TAMOF study network • Registry of TAMOF patients • Biochemical measurements • Plasma exchange in 6 centers • Obtaining data to inform development of randomized trial

  37. Children’s TAMOF Network • Actively participating centers: • Children’s of Atlanta at Egleston: coordinating center • Children’s of Atlanta at Scottish Rite • Children’s of Pittsburgh • Cook Children’s-Fort Worth • Vanderbilt Children’s • Cincinnati Children’s • Columbus Children’s • LSU-Shreveport Children’s • Arkansas Children’s • University of Michigan-Mott Children’s

  38. Children’s TAMOF Network Preliminary Data • 53 TAMOF patients registered to date-21 data complete • Median age 12 years • Median OFI: 4 • Similar PRISM, PELOD at admission

  39. Conclusions • Sepsis/MOF (including AKI): coagulopathy/thrombosis a major contributor • ADAMTS-13 deficiency may be a key component • Plasma exchange a promising therapy • Needs further study

  40. I hope I haven’t led you astray
