Brief Summary

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

The purpose is to demonstrate that vasoreactivity of patients with septic shock evaluated with dose-response curve is diminished in septic shock and ameliorated by activated protein C (APC).

This amelioration is correlated to decrease of inflammation, decrease of reactive oxygen species (ROS) markers and increase of circulating catecholamines.

Study Groups

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

Shock + Treatment

Patients treated with activated protein C

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Recombinant Activated Protein C

Intervention Type DRUG

24 μg/kg/h during 96 hours - intravenous injection

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)

Intervention Type DEVICE

After baseline measurement, cuff is blown up to obtain a muscular saturation at 40% and then deflated. Reactive hyperthermia is measured. It is considered as an index for endothelial function.

Phenylephrine

Intervention Type DRUG

Continuous administration of phenylephrine with electric syringe with increasing dosing levels: 0.0; 0.02; 0.05; 0.1; 0.2; 0.5; 0.75; 1.00; 1.50; 3.00; 4.50; 6.00; 9.00 et 12 µg/kg/min. Each level is maintained for 5 minutes. Administration of phenylephrine is stopped progressively with the same schema.

Arterial tension through an invasive approach is measured during the test.

Blood sample

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Analysis of inflammation and cellular adhesion markers and free radicals
