Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 18 or older admitted to the ICU with sepsis or septic shock who are planned to receive ARTICE® treatment are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients who are under 18, are not receiving ARTICE®, or have contraindications to the device are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies

This Phase 4 observational registry will record real-world clinical data on adult ICU patients treated with ARTICE® for sepsis, septic shock, or related immunoparalysis. Sites will collect baseline characteristics, treatment details, safety events, and clinical outcomes including SOFA score changes from day 0 to day 7. The project aims to identify patient subgroups with differing risk–benefit profiles and to document routine use patterns outside controlled trials. Initial enrollment is planned at participating hospitals offering ARTICE®, starting with Klinikum Magdeburg.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the registry could show whether ARTICE® improves short-term organ function and has an acceptable safety profile for sepsis patients treated in routine ICU care.

How similar studies have gone: ARTICE® has prior clinical use and this phase 4 registry builds on that experience, but large randomized trials showing clear benefit in sepsis are limited.
