Models of Endotoxemia in Rodents

  • Chapter
Pathophysiology of Shock, Sepsis, and Organ Failure

Abstract

Despite improved diagnostic monitoring and new therapeutic modalities, sepsis remains a serious cause of mortality in most surgical intensive care units (Parker and Parillo 1983). While the patient’s outcome following severe injury or transplantation has been improved, patients still run the risk of developing sepsis due to immunesuppressive therapy and to the increasing use of intravenous catheters (e.g., for various parenteral applications).
