Brief summary
Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) are the major causes of death in patients with acute aortic syndrome (AAS). Therefore, the prevention of SIRS and MODS is of great clinical value, and immunomodulatory therapy with thymosin alpha 1 in addition to antiinflammatory treatment may be beneficial. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that the administration of Ulinastatin and Thymosin α1 during the acute phase of AAS will result in a reduced incidence of SIRS and MODS.
Interventions
Ulinastatin (100000U TID for 5 days) and Thymosin alpha 1 (1.6 mg q12h for 5 days) immediately after surgery
Ulinastatin (100000U TID for 5 days) immediately after surgery
