Scientific titleHigh cut-off Continuous venovenous haemodialysis (CVVHD) to improve haemodynamic stability and Organ function scores in patients treated for acute renal failure after Systemic inflammatory response Syndrome (SIRS)/septic shock
Study acronymHICOSS
Study objectivesThe aim of the study is to evaluate whether high cut-off continuous venovenous haemodialysis (CVVHD) leads to a significant improvement of the haemodynamic status in comparison to CVVHD treatment with conventional high-flux filters.
Ethics approval(s)Approved by the following ethics committees:
1. Campus Charite Mitte, Berlin (ref: 1988/Si. 277) on 11/09/2003
2. University Clinic Tubingen (ref: 249/2003G) on 08/04/2004
3. Medical University Innsbruck (ref: 231/4.11) on 07/07/2005
4. Ethics Committee for Medical Research, Philipps-University Marburg clinic (ref: 19/06) on 15/02/2006
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedAcute renal failure after SIRS/septic shock
InterventionContinuous venovenous haemodialysis treatment with high-flux or high-cut-off dialysers.

Please note that as of 13/12/2007 the anticipated end date of this trial was extended to 31/12/2008 due to the enrolment period being extended. The previous anticipated end date of this trial was 31/12/2006.
