Abstract
pCLE reliably detected and quantified microcirculatory alterations in the gastrointestinal mucosa in a porcine model of sepsis and in patients with severe sepsis. Our data suggest that pCLE is a promising tool to assess the efficacy of therapeutic interventions on mucosal microcirculation in real-time, even in the clinical context.
