Method improvement: released cecal ligation-septic shock model.
A new released cecal ligation (RCL) technique of septic shock induction in rats is presented. It is relatively not complicated, fast, not expensive, and it mimics the human pathology. Presented procedure seems to be a useful alternative for the cecal ligation alone or cecal ligation and puncture to induce experimental septic shock in small laboratory animals.
