Main objective
Scope: Therapy
Determine the effect of Rasburicase on the occurrence and evolution of acute renal failure (ARF) in septic patients with uricemia ≥200 µmol/L.
Secondary objectives 4
- To determine if treatment with Rasburicase vs placebo is associated with A decrease in mortality.
- To determine if treatment with Rasburicase vs placebo is associated with an improvement of other organs dysfunction
- To determine if treatment with Rasburicase vs placebo is associated with a decrease in plasma and urinary markers of kidney injury
- To determine if treatment with Rasburicase vs placebo is associated with a decrease of inflammatory syndrome
