Brief Summary:
Acute Aortic Syndrome (AAS) is a common feature of acute aortic wall events, including aortic dissection, intramural hematoma, aortic ulceration and aortic trauma, and occurs in up to 35 cases per 100,000 cases per year between the ages of 65 and 75 years. Ulinastatin has antiinflammatory activity and suppresses the infiltration of neutrophils and the release of elastase and chemical mediators from neutrophils. Recent studies have shown that ulinastatin may be cytoprotective against ischemia-reperfusion injury in the liver, kidney, heart, and lung. The authors aim to examine the association between decreased release of inflammatory response to urinary trypsin inhibitor treatment and decreased myocardial and lung injury after acute aortic syndrome surgery.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Ulinastatin
Ulinastatin 10 0000 Units is taken intravenously three times a day.
Drug: Ulinastatin
Ulinastatin is taken three times a day.

Placebo Comparator: Saline
Same saline dose as ulinastatin is taken intravenously three times a day.
Drug: Saline
Saline is taken three times a day.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Oxygenation index [ Time Frame: 3 days after surgery ]
    Oxygenation index is calculated as PaO2/FiO2.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mortality [ Time Frame: 30 days after surgery ]
    Death from any cause
