Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
microcirculation measured with sidestream-dark-field measurement Measurements will be performed 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after each treatment with BEMER as well as between tretaments (also for 5 minutes) (s. brief summary in scientific language)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Every day of treatment all secondary objectives will be exmined. Exact timepoints of examination are listed below. 1) changing severity of multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (APACHE II Score) and changing coagulation (ISTH Overt DIC Score) timepoint 0h and 8 h 2) changin in cardiavascular parameters a) Heartindex (HI), Cardiac Power-Index (CPI), Afterloadrelated Cardiac Performance (ACP), systemic vessel resistance (SVR) timepoint: before and after treatment with BEMER and between treatments; parellel to SDF-Measurement b) cumulative dose of vasopressors timepoint: 0h, retrospective last 12 h c) serum lactat timepoint: 0h and 8h 3) changin in cardial autonomous function (cardiac frequency, heart rate variability) timepoint: before and after treatment with BEMER and between treatments, parellel to SDF-Measurement 4) safety of patients (adverse events, device deficiencies) continuous 5) lethality (intensive care unit, hospital, 28 d and 180 d after beginning of therapy)
