Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study objective is to clarify whether the application of CPFA (coupled plasma-filtration adsorption) in addition to the current clinical practice is able to reduce mortality and prevent organ failures in septic shock patients in intensive care unit (ICU).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Septic shock is a life-threatening clinical condition characterized by cardiovascular failure as a consequence of infection. Septic shock frequently causes multi-organ failure in the ICU. For this reason the extracorporeal therapies for the treatment of renal failure have become widespread in the ICU and, at the same time, new extracorporeal depurative techniques have been developed for the removal of inflammatory mediators. One of these techniques is CPFA (coupled plasma-filtration adsorption) that uses a sorbent once the separation between plasma and blood has been obtained with a plasma filter. The study objective is to clarify whether the application of CPFA in addition to the current clinical practice is able to reduce mortality and prevent organ failures in septic shock patients in intensive care unit.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

1

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

CPFA (Coupled Plasma Filtration Adsorption)

Intervention Type DEVICE

CPFA is a specific method for the treatment of sepsis.

It consists of:

1. a plasma-filter (polyethersulfone 0.45 m2 with a cutoff of approx 800 kDa)
2. a hemofilter (polyethersulfone 1,4 m2)
3. a cartridge (contains approximately 140 ml of hydrophobic styrenic resin)

The kit is lodged in the Bellco "Lynda" machine (Bellco Mirandola, Italy). The treatment consists of the separation of plasma from the whole blood with adsorption of the inflammatory mediators and cytokines from the plasma, and a subsequent purification step by way of a hemofilter.
