Official Title: Removal of Cytokines With Cytosorbents After Inflammatory Response Reaction During Cardiac Surgery and Association of Endothelial Progenitor Cells
Brief Summary:
Detailed knowledge about the association between systemic inflammation and endothelial progenitor cell (EPCs) activation during extracorporeal circulation (ECC) is lacking.This pilot study aims to clarify the relationship between CD34-positive EPCs and cytokine release during ECC using the cytokine adsorber to make a predictive statement regarding the clinical expression of inflammation.
