Abstract：Sepsis is a clinical syndrome characterized by systemic uncontrolled inflammatory response caused by infection, and is the most common cause of death in critically ill patients. Blood purification therapy has immunomodulatory functions through the nonspecific elimination of endotoxin and(or) inflammatory mediators, and shows a good prospect of application in sepsis. However, most of the current blood purification techniques do not show the benefits of improving the survival rate of patients with sepsis. In this paper,the mechanism of immunomodulation of blood purification and the progress of different blood purification techniques in sepsis are briefly reviewed, and the direction of the future immunomodulation is pointed out.
