    Analyze the patient's variation of IL-6 plasmatic concentration during the hemoperfusion process

  2. Adverse events

    Time frame: During hemoperfusion

    Analyze the presence of adverse events during the hemoperfusion process

  3. Organ failure

    Time frame: During hemoperfusion

    Analyze the number and severity of failed organs during the hemoperfusion process

  4. Vasopressors dose

    Time frame: During hemoperfusion

    Analyze the patient's vasopressor dose variation during the hemoperfusion process

  5. Mean arterial pressure

    Time frame: During hemoperfusion

    Analyze the patient's variation of mean arterial pressure during hemoperfusion

  6. Vasopressors dose

    Time frame: During ICU stay

    Analyze the number of days on vasopressor support during ICU stay

  7. Mechanical ventilation

    Time frame: During ICU stay

    Analyze the number of days on mechanical ventilation during ICU stay

  8. Renal replacement therapy

    Time frame: During ICU stay

    Analyze the number of days on renal replacement therapy during ICU stay

  9. ICU length of stay

    Time frame: Post-Intensive Care Unit discharge

    Analyze the patient's length of stay in ICU

  10. ICU survival

    Time frame: Post-Intensive Care Unit discharge

    Analyze the patient's survival in ICU

  11. Hospital stay

    Time frame: post-hospital discharge

    Analyze the patient's length of stay post-Intensive Care Unit discharge

  12. Hospital survival

    Time frame: Post-hospital discharge
