Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2016
This study evaluates the effect of extracorporeal removal of inflammatory mediators on the systemic inflammation reaction of patients admitted to the intensive care unit following elective esophagectomy. Half of the participants will be treated with an adsorption device (CytoSorbents Adsorber), while the other half will be treated according to standard care. Significant reductions of interleukin-6 plasma concentration, SOFA score and catecholamine dosage in the intervention group are expected.
