Brief Summary
|
Studies in patients with sepsis have shown that
there is a decrease in serum levels of Ulinastatin, with lowest levels being
found in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock. Previous
studies have shown that Ulinastatin administration to patients with SIRS
reduces the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as polymorphonuclear
leukocyte elastase, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and Interleukin 6 and
serum C‑reactive protein and increase in the levels of anti‑inflammatory
cytokine Interleukin-10. In few studies, Ulinastatin has also shown reduction
in the mortality, confirming the benefit of its addition to patients with
sepsis, severe sepsis and shock.
Primary Objective of the study is to evaluate the
28-day mortality |
