4 strong recommendations based on

low quality evidence

Changed recommendations

Initial resuscitation

3. We recommend that, following initial fluid

resuscitation, additional fluids be guided by frequent

reassessment of hemodynamic status (BPS)

4. We recommend further hemodynamic assessment

to determine the type of shock if the clinical

examination does not lead to a clear diagnosis (BPS)

5. We suggest that dynamic over static variables be

used to predict fluid responsiveness, where available

(weak recommendation, low quality of evidence).


Antibiotics

3. We recommend that antimicrobial therapy is

narrowed once pathogen identification and sensitivity

are established and/or adequate clinical improvement is

noted (BPS).

14. We suggest that procalcitonin levels can be used to

support shortening the duration of antibiotics … (weak

recommendation, low quality of evidence).

15. We suggest that procalcitonin levels can be used to

support the discontinuation of empiric antibiotics …

(weak recommendation, low quality of evidence).


Fluid therapy

3. We suggest using either balanced

crystalloids or saline for fluid resuscitation …

(weak recommendation, low quality of

evidence).

6. We suggest using crystalloids over gelatins

when resuscitating … (weak recommendation,

low quality of evidence).


Blood products

1. We recommend that RBC transfusion occur

only when hemoglobin concentration decreases

to < 7.0 g/dL …in the absence of … myocardial

ischemia, severe hypoxemia, or acute hemorrhage

(strong recommendation, high quality of

evidence).


Mechanical ventilation

5. We recommend using prone over supine

position in adult patients with sepsis-induced

ARDS and a PaO2/FIO2 ratio < 150 (strong

recommendation, moderate quality of

evidence).

8. We suggest using neuromuscular blocking

agents for 48-h in adult patients with sepsis-

induced ARDS and a PaO2/FIO2 ratio < 150

(weak recommendation, moderate quality of

evidence).


Nutrition

2. We recommend against the administration of

parenteral nutrition alone or in combination with

enteral feeds over the first 7 days … (strong

recommendation, moderate quality of evidence)

11. We recommend against the use of glutamine

… (strong recommendation, moderate quality of

evidence).

• Dobutamine

• Minimizing sedation

• Stress ulcer prophylaxis

• Head of bed elevation

Down-grading of recommendations

or evidence

SSCG 2016

• Very extensive cover

• Reasonably balanced text

• Progress, better evidence in some areas

• Still some ‘strong – low’ mismatches

• Worrying low evidence in key areas

• Academic bias difficult to control
