Summary
VEGF is a key molecule in the control of vascular permeability via interactions with the VEGF-receptor on the endothelial cell. Several authors reported plasma VEGF levels are elevated in sepsis shock and associated with increased mortality (1,2).
In septic shock, the main elements of treatment are intravenous fluids, appropriate antibiotics and vasopressors. Some authors observed positive fluid balance is associated with increased mortality rates in patients (3,4).
To the best of our knowledge, no studies have shown a correlation between VEGF levels and the fluid balance. The aim of our study was to determine the role of VEGF in capillary leakage and the positive fluid balance in septic shock.
