Purpose
Septic shock of intra-abdominal origin is likely due to Gram-negative bacteria or mixed pathogens and associated with high levels of endotoxin. The injury to the endothelium results in an increase of endothelial permeability, interstitial edema and release of nitric oxide (NO) that is a very potent vasodilatator. [6] Polymyxins obtained from the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus polymyxa are antibiotics known for their ability to bind LPS in the outer membrane of the Gram-negative bacterial cell wall as well as free endotoxins with high affinity. Polymyxin-B has been shown to block the activation of cells by a wide variety of LPS. Studies converged to show an improvement in the treatment of septic shock by removing circulating endotoxin.Starting Polymyxin-B hemoperfusion during the operative time is to block the initiation of various deleterious biological cascades induced by endotoxemia such as systemic inflammation, disseminated coagulation disorders, and shock, leading to organ dysfunction and death.

- The primary endpoint will be requirement of vasopressors during the first 72 hrs after the beginning of the PMX hemoperfusion using the "inotropic score" [ Time Frame: The inotropic score is assessed at the following specific time points: Time 0 - baseline measurements at the beginning of surgery, second time point at the end of surgery, Time 0 +6 hours, Time 0 + 24 hours, Time 0 + 48 hours, Time 0 + 72 hours. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- The secondary endpoint will be the variation of MAP, during the first 72 hrs after the beginning of the PMX hemoperfusion [ Time Frame: The inotropic score is assessed at the following specific time points: Time 0 - baseline measurements at the beginning of surgery, second time point at the end of surgery, Time 0 +6 hours, Time 0 + 24 hours, Time 0 + 48 hours, Time 0 + 72 hours. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- The secondary endpoint will be the variation of "vasopressor dependency index", during the first 72 hrs after the beginning of the PMX hemoperfusion [ Time Frame: The variation of the "vasopressor dependency index" is assessed at: Time 0 - baseline measurements at the beginning of surgery, second time point at the end of surgery, Time 0 +6 hours, Time 0 + 24 hours, Time 0 + 48 hours, Time 0 + 72 hours. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- The secondary endpoint will be the variation of Pa02/Fi02, during the first 72 hrs after the beginning of the PMX hemoperfusion [ Time Frame: The variation of Pa02/Fi02 is assessed at the following specific time points: Time 0 - baseline measurements at the beginning of surgery, second time point at the end of surgery, Time 0 +6 hours, Time 0 + 24 hours, Time 0 + 48 hours, Time 0 + 72 hours. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- The secondary endpoint will be the variations of the total SOFA score during the first 7 days after the beginning of the PMX hemoperfusion [ Time Frame: The variations of the total SOFA score will be assessed once a day from day 1, till discharge of the ICU, and this maximaly 7 days after the beginning of the PMX hemoperfusion ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- The secondary endpoint will be the 28-days mortality [ Time Frame: The 28-days mortality will be assessed on the 28th day post PMX hemoperfusion ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- The secondary endpoint will be the 90-days mortality [ Time Frame: The 90-days mortality will be assessed on day 90 post PMX hemoperfusion ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Active Comparator: Polymyxin-B hemoperfusion
In the HEMOPERFUSION group, a veno-venous dialysis catheter type GamCath 12 F, 3 lumen will be inserted instead of a regular double or triple-lumen central venous catheter, and connected to the Toraymyxin® (PMX-20-R) device for endotoxin adsorption by hemoperfusion with the DECAPSMART pump. The length of the hemoperfusion will be a minimum of 120 min and started just before the beginning of the surgical intervention in the OR and stopped at the end of surgery.

Other: Polymyxin-B hemoperfusion |

Active Comparator: Control
In the CONTROL group, the administration of fluids (250 to 500ml crystalloids) and cardiovascular supportive drugs will be guided to maintain standard pressure-related parameters within a normal range: MAP > 65mmHg, HR < 90/min, CVP between > 8 and 12 < mmHg, urinary output > 0.5 ml/kg/h. In line with the conventional approach, other physiological parameters will also be targeted: T° > 35.5°C, Sp02 > 95%, lactate < 2.5 mMol/L, normalisation of the BE. At the discretion of the attending anaesthesiologist with the FMH level, a PiCCO monitoring, a transoesophageal echography, or a pulmonary artery catheter, will be inserted to complement the standard hemodynamic monitoring if deemed necessary. |
