Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To describe the effects of plasma and plasma products on endothelial integrity and glycocalyx composition. To show that plasma and/or plasma products might rejuvenate, repair or protect the injured endothelium in critically ill patients thus being potentially valuable adjuncts in the treatment of serious conditions such as sepsis, septic shock, trauma and severe haemorrhage ;Secondary Objective: To answer how the conditions and the time plasma and plasma products are stored in the blood bank influence how these products affect the endothelium, and if perhaps, a revision of current guidelines on storage of these products is required.;Primary end point(s): Change in the level of biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and glycocalyx degradation as measured by ELISA in plasma/serum samples from subjects. Markers measured are: Syndecan-1, soluble thrombomodulin, soluble e-selectin, sphingosine-1-phosphate, Prothrombin fragment 1,2 (PF1.2), Thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), Protein C (PC), activated protein C (aPC), Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), Antithrombin (ATIII), coagulation factor XIII (FXIII), Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), Plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), D-dimer, INR, sCD40L, TGF-ß, ß -TG, PF4, Sphingosine-1-phosphate, Hgb, Hct, leucocyte count, platelet count, fibrinogen. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At completion of all experimental sessions | — |
