Rapidly progressive interstitial pneumonia (IP), including acute exacerbation of IP, has a high mortality rate. Direct hemoperfusion with a polymyxin B-immobilized fiber column (PMX-DHP) was recently identified as an effective treatment for sepsis-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome. However, little is known about the effectiveness of PMX-DHP for rapidly progressive IP.
