Renal function indicators, inflammatory indicators, haemodynamic indicators and recovery status were analysed and compared.Results: After 72 hours of treatment, C-reactive protein (CRP), serum creatinine (SCR), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and plasma lactic in the CRRT group decreased (P < 0.001), procalcitonin (PCT) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were reduced (P < 0.01) and urine volume and mean arterial pressure (MAP) increased (P < 0.001). After 72 hours of treatment, CRP and PCT in the control group increased (P < 0.05), SCR, BUN and NT-proBNP increased (P < 0.001), plasma lactic was not significantly changed and MAP decreased (P < 0.05). The 28-day mortality in the CRRT group was lower than in the control group (28.6% vs 49%, P = 0.038), intensive care unit hospitalisation time was shorter than in the control group (11.27 ± 9.34 vs 15.43 ± 9.19 d, P = 0.028) and Acute Physiological Function and Chronic Health Status Scoring System II and Sequential Organ Failure Score scores were lower after treatment (P < 0.001). The difference was statistically significant.Conclusion: Continuous renal replacement therapy can significantly improve inflammatory response, enhance haemodynamics, promote renal function recovery and increase overall treatment efficacy in patients with pulmonary TB complicated with sepsis.Keywords: continuous renal replacement therapy, pulmonary tuberculosis, sepsis, clinical efficacy
