Background: Hemolysis is a frequent complication in patients with sepsis, ARDS, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Haptoglobin (Hp) can scavenge released cell-free hemoglobin (CFH). Hemolysis and low plasma concentrations of Hp may be independently associated with mortality in critically ill patients.
