NCT03266302
Brief Summary:
Infective endocarditis (IE) is associated with high hospital mortality for various reasons; one of them is circulatory failure in patients who undergo cardiac surgery for IE. One discussed reason underlying circulatory failure during surgery is the release of vasodilatatory mediators and cytokines. This study examines the efficacy and safety of a hemoadsorption filter which is approved for the reduction of the concentration of cytokines in the bloodstream.
Detailed Description:
The investigators assume a common standard deviation of 3.8 points and that a 1.4-point lower SOFA score in the Intervention Group is of clinical relevance.
