CardioVasc Aims and scope

Die septische Enzephalopathie stellt eine pathophysiologisch komplexe Hirnfunktionsstörung septischer Patienten dar. Ihr Schweregrad korreliert mit der Mortalität. Häufig ist die Enzephalopathie das Erstsymptom einer Infektionserkrankung. Aufgrund dieser Tatsache und der bis heute fehlenden spezifischen Therapieoptionen ist eine frühe Erkennung mit der Chance einer umgehenden antimikrobiellen Behandlung sowie die differenzialdiagnostische Abgrenzung gegenüber anderen Ursachen eines Enzephalopathie-Syndromes entscheidend.
