Continuous blood purification ameliorates clinical signs and corrects the plasma phospholipid levels of patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndromes

Background Multiple organ dysfunction syndromes ( MODS ) is reported as a leading cause of mortality in intensive care units. Recently, continuous blood purification ( CBP ) has been mostly applied for MODS treatment. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of CBP on plasma phospholipid level in patients with MODS .
