Brief Summary:
This prospective randomized single center study investigates to what extent the removal of elevated cytokine levels by hemoadsorption has a positive effect on the treatment of patients in septic shock by stabilizing the circulatory situation.
Detailed Description:
The term "sepsis" refers to a clinical syndrome in which a dysregulation of the host's inflammatory reaction to infection leads to a life-threatening of organ dysfunctions. Sepsis and septic shock are major causes of death in intensive care units worldwide.
The clinical picture of septic shock, the most severe form of sepsis, leads to uncontrolled production and release of a large number of proinflammatory cytokines and mediators, the "cytokine storm". Septic shock is accompanied by a massive increase in mortality of up to 60%.
This high mortality rate is due to a lack of current treatment options. The early recognition of the disease and its immediate treatment are decisive for successful therapy and the survival of those affected. The most important therapeutic steps, apart from focus control by antibiotics and surgical intervention, are the stabilization of the affected organ systems, in particular the circulatory system and the respiratory system. As an extracorporeal and non-specific procedure for the interruption of the cytokine storm, hemoadsorption by means of CytoSorb adsorbers may be an intervention, which has already demonstrated its basic effectiveness in the treatment of septic and cardiosurgical patients.
