More than 1 million people undergo cardiac surgery each year worldwide. Cardiac surgeries still in most cases require artificial circulation, use of myocardial protection against aortic clamping and creation of cardioplegic arrest of the heart by injecting cardioplegic solutions into the coronary bed. All of the above is a source of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, which remains the leading cause of acute heart failure in the period after the return of spontaneous circulation and, as a consequence, the development of post-perfusion multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and, in particular, acute kidney injury (AKI). Acute kidney injury typically develops in 7% of all hospitalised patients, 30% of intensive care unit patients and 30% of cardiac surgery patients. Endotoxemia is a major cause of AKI. Septic AKI (compared to non-septic AKI) is associated with a worse prognosis, longer hospital stay and poorer survival. The use of the Efferon LPS hemoperfusion device, which has proven efficacy in removing not only endotoxin but also cytokines, may be promising in preventing the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and in particular AKI in patients after cardiac surgery with artificial circulation.

Every year, more than 1 million people around the world undergo heart surgery. Cardiac surgery still requires artificial circulation in the majority of cases for a number of reasons. The use of artificial circulation in cardiothoracic surgery is a well-known and potent inducer of immune responses due to the contact of whole blood with air and extracorporeal circuit surfaces, ischemia-reperfusion injury, hemolysis and release of free hemoglobin, the effects of surgical trauma itself, and other factors.The activation of immune cells leads to the release of cytokines and inflammatory mediators such as IL-6, IL-8, activated complement and others. One of the most common post-operative complications associated with the administration of artificial circulation during surgery is acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI develops in 30% of patients undergoing cardiac surgery and is associated with high mortality, longer hospital stay, dialysis dependency, high risk of infectious complications and ultimately poor quality of life. Endotoxemia is a major cause of AKI. Septic AKI (compared to non-septic AKI) is associated with a worse prognosis, longer hospital stay and poorer survival. Currently, hemosorbents based on highly cross-linked styrene/divinylbenzene copolymers can remove endo- and exotoxins in sepsis and acute and chronic renal and hepatic failure, remove intoxication by pharmacological drugs, narcotics and poisons, and remove cytokines produced in excess in systemic inflammatory syndromes of various aetiologies, including systemic inflammatory response syndrome after open-heart surgery with artificial circulation. Hemoperfusion is a method of extracorporeal removal of toxic substances from the blood by adsorption to a porous material. Hemoperfusion can be a good complement or substitute to the classical methods of hemofiltration and hemodialysis when diffusion or convection of toxic substances through the membrane is not efficient enough. Based on previous studies, the use of the Efferon LPS hemoperfusion device, which has proven efficacy in removing not only endotoxin but also cytokines, may be promising in preventing the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and in particular AKI in patients after cardiac surgery with artificial circulation.
