Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: • ICU patients • Male or female sex, age of ?18 yrs. • Critical illness requiring admission to the ICU. • Presence of Ileus or Subileus • Need for prophylactic systemic anticoagulation due to physical conditions. • Presence of disease that is associated with elevated MP levels such as sepsis, cardiovascular disease, tumor, diabetes or hyperlipidemia. • Normal renal function (serum creatinine of ?1.3 mg/dL). • Prothrombin time of ?30%. • Thrombocyte count >80 G/L. • Written informed consent by capacitated subjects.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the effect of Xarelto/ Pradaxa on microparticle formation in critically ill compared to age- & sex-matched subjects.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the effects of Xarelto/ Pradaxa on fibrin formation in an ex-vivo perfusion chamber model. To evaluate the effects of Xarelto/ Pradaxa on systemic fibrin formation by assessment of the endogenous thrombin potential, thrombin coagulation time, levels of D-Dimers, prothrombin fragement 1+2, soluble sP-selectin and aPTT;Primary end point(s): Plasma Microparticle concentrations;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: baseline, 3, 6 and 10hrs after IMP adminstration | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Thrombus size (D-Dimer content of degraded ex-vivo thrombus) 2. Endogenous thrombin potential (ETP) 3. Human fibrin fragment F1+2, thrombin coagulation time (TCT), levels of D-Dimers, soluble sP-selectin and of activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: baseline, 1, 3,6 and 10hrs after IMP administration | — |
