Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in cytokine levels

    Plasma levels reduction of the following inflammatory mediators: IL-1β,IL-1Ra, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF-α.

    From baseline (randomization) to 72 hours after randomization

  • Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    Rate of intervention-related complications

    From beginning of hemoadsorption to 24 hours after the end of hemoadsorption, incidence of adverse events such as haemorrhagic complications, catheter-insertion related complications and anaphylactoid reactions

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Vasopressor requirements

    From baseline (randomization) to 72 hours after randomization

  • In-hospital mortality

    Day 14, 28 and 90 after randomization

  • Shock reversal

    Within 24 hours from randomization

  • Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Score (SOFA)

    Day 1 to 7 after randomization

  • CRP and Procalcitonin Levels

    Day 1, 2, 3 after randomization

Study Arms (2)

Hemoadsorption

EXPERIMENTAL

Hemoadsorption is performed using a CytoSorb® cartridge.

Device: CytoSorb® Hemoadsorption

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Post-cardiac arrest management will be conducted as per institutional protocols.

Interventions

The therapy is initiated within 6 hours from randomization and maintained for a minimum of 12 consecutive hours to a maximum of 24 consecutive hours.

Hemoadsorption
