Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of an extracorporeal application of a bed-side bioreactor containing human donor granulocytes on the course and outcome of septic shock in humans.
