Zusammenfassung

Sepsis, septischer Schock und sepsisinduziertes Multiorganversagen haben einen wesentlichen Anteil an der Mortalität von Patienten auf Intensivstationen. Trotz vieler Weiterentwicklungen auf dem Gebiet der Intensivmedizin hat sich die Letalität der Sepsis (35−70 %) in den letzten Jahren nicht wesentlich geändert. Die verschiedenen Aspekte der Pathophysiologie bei Sepsis sind Thema unzähliger Untersuchungen und Veröffentlichungen der letzten Jahre. Obwohl viele der so gewonnenen Erkenntnisse dazu beigetragen haben, das Krankheitsbild der Sepsis besser zu verstehen, haben nur wenige auch neue oder verbesserte Therapieansätze hervorgebracht. So sind das Zusammenspiel und die Bedeutung der verschiedenen Mediatoren des inflammatorischen Systems heute besser bekannt. Wesentliche therapeutische Optionen haben sich daraus bisher aber nicht ergeben. Ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Therapie bei Sepsis und Multiorganversagen ist daher nach wie vor eine adäquate und differenzierte Kreislauftherapie.
