Treatments typically focus on physiological support and alleviation of hepatic insult. This study aims to evaluate the role of high\u2010volume plasma exchange (HVPE) in surgical critically ill patients with medical jaundice and hepatic failure.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>A retrospective review was conducted on surgical critically ill patients with hepatic failure unresponsive to conventional therapy, excluding those with obstructive jaundice. HVPE was considered for patients with persistent hyperbilirubinemia (&gt;\u00a010\u00a0mg\/dL) and coexisting conditions such as coagulopathy, hyperammonemia, more than Grade II hepato\u2010encephalopathy, or exacerbated sepsis\/septic shock status or multiple organ failure. Patients were categorized into standard medical treatment (SMT) and SMT\u00a0+\u00a0HVPE groups. Demographics and laboratory data were collected for analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Result<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 117 patients were enrolled, with 79 in the SMT group and 38 in the SMT\u00a0+\u00a0HVPE group. There were no significant differences in laboratory data and MELD score upon admission. Before treatment, patients in the SMT\u00a0+\u00a0HVPE group exhibited higher levels of T\u2010bil., D\u2010bil., and sugar than the SMT group. After treatment, the SMT\u00a0+\u00a0HVPE group showed lower serum D\u2010bil. and AST levels but higher levels of albumin and platelets compared to the SMT group. The SMT\u00a0+\u00a0HVPE group demonstrated significantly lower delta T\u2010bil., delta D\u2010bil., and higher delta platelet levels. The survival rate was 31.6% (12\/38) in the SMT\u00a0+\u00a0HVPE group and 1.3% (1\/79) in the SMT group. The in\u2010hospital mortality rate in the SMT\u00a0+\u00a0HVPE group was lower than that in the SMT group, with a hazard ratio of 0.42 in the crude model and 0.34 (95% CI\u00a0=\u00a00.20\u20130.60 and <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.0002) in the adjusted model.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our findings suggest that HVPE improves survival rates in surgical critically ill patients with medical jaundice and hepatic failure.
