Brief Summary

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

The aim of this observative, prospective study is to evaluate if and to what extent glycocalyx damage/microcirculation data at admission in the ICU as well as during ICU stay can be predictive of mortality and clinical course in patients presenting with the suspicion of sepsis/septic shock. Therefore, the enrollment of ca 100 ICU patients is planned.
