• Temperature ≥38oC or ≤36oC

• HR ≥90 beats/min

• Respirations ≥20/min

• WBC count ≥12,000/mm3 or≤4,000/mm3 or >10% bands

General PracticeFloors

ORand Recovery

• 115 million visits/year.• 2.9% of hospital admits are

severe sepsis and septic shock.– 600,000 admissions per

year through the ED.• ED waiting times (5-6 hours)

approaching 24 hours.

• After ICU Admission:

– > 6 hour total delay forhemodynamic optimization.

– ICU is poor

• Shock mortality rate:

– ICU - 24% to 70%.

The Evidence behind theResuscitation Bundle

The Role of Antibiotics

• 2,154 septic shock patients

• Received antibiotics after theonset of recurrent or persistenthypotension

• Each hour of delay over 6 hrswas associated with 7.6%decrease in survival.

The Importance ofSource Control

• 54 y/o high school principlepresents with pyelonephritis,receives antibiotics.

• Radiography

• Remove infected devices

• Early Surgical Intervention

Sepsis is the friend of the elderly……. Greg Henry

Miss World FinalistMariana Bridi da Costa

Age 20, Dies From septic shock

“Doctors diagnosed her with aurinary track infection, her

condition worsened and doctorsthen diagnosed her with kidneystone and urinary tract infection

spread”

“She was hospitalized, requireddialysis and had her hands andfeet amputated in a bid to save

her from a deadly and little-knownillness”

• 62 year presents with sepsis after a prostate biopsy.• He also complains of SIRS, SOB and disorientation.• WBC of 25,000 and Lactate of 9 mM/L• Blood cultures and Antibiotics• 7 liters of fluid

May, 2006

7 liters of fluids in first6 hours and offvasopressors

Day 2 – Extubated in theRecovery Room

10 liters of fluid in10 hours

Day 3 –Mobilization

93 years old Perforated Ulcer

Levophed – 10 ug/min

Although no difference in mortality at 60 days between the twotreatment groups, patients treated according to a conservativestrategy of fluid management (47 hours after ICU adm) had:

1. Significantly improved lung function and centralnervous system function

2. Decreased need for sedation, mechanicalventilation, and intensive care.

3. A small (0.3 day) increase in the number ofcardiovascular-failure–free days during the first 7 dayswith the liberal strategy.

These salutary effects were achieved without an increase in thefrequency of non-pulmonary organ failure or shock.

Now what should I do about steroids?

The Original Trial

• 8 hour time frame

• Minimal steroid use

• 56% mortality

The Corticus Trial

• 72 hour time frame

• Excluded patientstreated – over 50%

• Less severe patients –30 - 40% mortality

• Similar benefit withhigher mortality
