摘要
Knowledge of sepsis is growing rapidly and new pathogenetic concepts and therapeutic strategies evolve. The animal models of sepsis catalyze this development. Any model of this complex disease is inevitably a compromise between clinical realism and experimental simplification. Against the background of current pathogenetic concepts this review tries to analyze the validity and clinical relevance of each model. Endotoxemia and bacteremia represent models without an infectious focus. They reproduce many characteristics of sepsis and are highly controlled and standardized. However, they reflect a primarily systemic challenge and create neither an infectious focus nor the protracted immune reaction that characterizes sepsis. In this respect, any model with an infectious focus is decisively closer to clinical reality. In these models the peritoneal cavity is contaminated either by bacteria or inoculated feces or perforation of the bowel wall. Both the bolus injection and the implantation of carriers loaded with bacteria or feces are used. In fecal spesis and perforation models the complete spectrum of enteric pathogens is present in the septic focus and infective selection is undisturbed. Here the pathophysiologic and immunologic features of clinical sepsis are successfully reproduced. However, presumably due to inadequate control of the bacterial challenge, only poor interlaboratory standardization is possible. As to optimize models for the clinical reality the choice of an appropriate class of models is crucial. Moreover the incorporation of clinical therapy such as volume resuscitation, antibiotic therapy and surgical treatment of the septic focus is indispensable. Finally, the importance of simulation of comorbidities cannot be overemphasized.
