5. Patients are required to have an indwelling arterial line, which is expected to remain
present for at least the first 24 hours of LJPC-501 treatment.

6. Patients must have received at least 40 mL/kg of crystalloid or colloid equivalent
over the initial 24-hour resuscitation period, and are adequately volume resuscitated
in the opinion of the Investigator.

7. Parent or legal guardian is willing and able to provide informed consent and assist
the patient in complying with all protocol requirements.

24 hours of Screening.
