Sepsis

Sepsis is diagnosed in over one million patients each
year in the United States.

An estimated 20.3 billion or 5.2 percent of the total
cost of all hospitalizations and the most expensive
condition treated in the year 2011.

High mortality rate.

Over the age of 65 (include differential of sepsis)
Surviving Sepsis and Septic
Shock
 Mortality rates associated with sepsis

28-50% for severe sepsis

50-60% for septic shock
 Severe sepsis is the leading cause of death in the non-coronary
ICU
 Sepsis kills approximately 1,400
•
people worldwide every day
2013 NYS DOH issues a mandate for all hospitals to
produce clinical care guidelines for evidence-based
recognition and treatment of sepsis.

Adult and Pediatric treatment protocols for both ED
and inpatient.

Education of hospital staff: Physician/Resident, RN,

Surviving Sepsis Campaign

Acronym
LEADER
 Learn
about sepsis and quality improvement
 Establish
a baseline to show that improvement is necessary
(start collecting data) show any gaps in care
 Ask
for buy-in from leadership and seek support from
stakeholders (providers, quality councils, Chief Medical
officer.
 Develop
institution specific Protocol comprising all bundle
elements
 Educate
stakeholders
 Remediate
errors and anticipate obstacles along the way
Severe Sepsis Bundles

The Severe Sepsis Bundles area a series of evidence-based therapies that,
when implemented together, will achieve better outcomes than if
implemented individually.

3 hour Bundle implementation

6 hour Bundle implementation

Other selected therapies recommended by the 2012 Surviving Sepsis Campaign:

Blood Product Administration

Maintain Adequate Glycemic Control

Mechanical ventilation of Sepsis-induced Acute Respiratory Distress syndrome

Sedation, analgesia, and neuromuscular Blockade

Deep Vein Thrombosis and peptic ulcer disease prophylaxis
Society of Critical Care
Medicine

The SCCM reports finding
of a task force charged
with putting forth new
recommendations for
sepsis to providers.

The group
recommendations move
forward the new
definitions of sepsis and
septic shock.

They provide new
recommendations for
providers in the quick
assessment and
treatment.

Suggested method to
determine organ
dysfunction is:
Sequential(Sepsis Related)
organ failure assessment
(SOFA)
Defining the septic picture
• SIRS (Systemic inflammatory response syndrome): The
clinical syndrome that results from a deregulated inflammatory
response syndrome or to a noninfectious insult.
• Sepsis: SIRS that is secondary to infection that has been
diagnosed clinically. Positive cultures add to the validity but are
not required for the diagnosis.
• Severe Sepsis: Sepsis plus at least one of the signs of hypo
perfusion or organ dysfunction that is new, and not explained by
other known etiology of organ dysfunction.
• Septic Shock: Severe sepsis associated with refractory
hypotension (BP<90/60) despite adequate fluid resuscitation
and/or a serum lactate level >4.0 mmol/L.
Further recommendations

Physicians should be looking for organ dysfunction every time the
suspect infection.

Conversely they should be looking for infection when a patient
presents with organ dysfunction.
Quick SOFA or qSOFA
 Consists
of 3 simple tests that
clinicians can do at bedside with
patients who are at risk for sepsis.
 The
qSOFA assessment directs
physicians to look for these warning
signs.
 An
alteration in Mental Status
A
decrease in systolic blood pressure
less than 100 mm Hg
A
respiratory rate of > 22 breaths/min.
Evaluating Severe Sepsis
Q1:
Suspected infection clinical judgment to determine
if there is a new potential site
of infection.
Q2:
Signs of SIRS – two signs
and symptoms of SIRS based on
vitals and recent lab results.
Q3:
Organ dysfunction –
often discovered by an
abnormal serum lactate
value

Data indicate that patients with two or
more of these conditions are at a
significantly greater risk for prolonged
ICU stay (3 or more days) or to die in
the hospital.

For these patients the task force
recommends that clinicians investigate
further for organ dysfunction, initiate or
escalated therapy as appropriate and to
consider referral to critical care or increase
the frequency of monitoring.

Hospital Engagement Network
HRET Mission
Transforming health care through
research and education.
HRET Vision
Leveraging research and education to
create a society of healthy
communities, where all individuals
reach their highest potential for health
HRET HEN 2.0
Since the last Sepsis Change Package
by HRET, the science has evolved, and
there are key changes.

Early goal-directed therapy for volume replacement via formal
algorithms has been shown by the ARISE8, ProMISe9 and
ProCESS10 studies to not offer a clinical advantage.

The Surviving Sepsis Campaign has changed the 6-hour bundle,
updating the assessment of volume status. The 6-hour bundle no
longer requires the use of central venous pressure lines or ScvO2
if early recognition of sepsis and timely antibiotic administration
has occurred. Instead these two modalities are one of the
optional methods to assess volume. No changes have been made
to the 3-hour bundle.

New information suggests that hypotonic fluids, when used for
resuscitation and maintenance volume therapy, place the
acutely ill patient at significant risk for hyponatremia. Isotonic
fluid should be used. Data is insufficient to recommend
balanced versus unbalanced isotonic solutions.11
Measurement
Additionally, in 2014 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
added a requirement for hospitals to report post-operative sepsis as
a Hospital Acquired Condition.
The measure used comes from the Agency for Healthcare Research
and Quality Patient Safety Indicator 13.12
CMS recently added the first National Core Measure for Sepsis
beginning October 2015 measuring compliance with the 3-hour and
6-hour bundle interventions to reduce sepsis mortality.

How do we manage sepsis
and septic shock?
Investigate and treat sepsis
1)
•
Try to find and treat source
•
Early blood cultures
•
Start antibiotics ASAP, ideally within 1 hour and after cultures
taken
2) Assess extent of end organ hypo perfusion and improve oxygen
delivery (early goal directed therapy)
Resuscitation Bundle
3-hour and 6-hour Bundle Division
•
3-hour Bundle – Actions to be taken within the
first 3 hours of resuscitation from initial
recognition for adults and within 60 minutes from
initial recognition for pediatric patients.
•
6 – hour Bundle – Actions to be taken within the
first 6 hours of resuscitation from initial
recognition for adults and within 60 minutes from
initial recognition for pediatric patients.
 Two treatment track – invasive or noninvasive
 Track followed is based on the criticality and
initial response to hemodynamic measures.
Best Practice Treatment of Severe Sepsis
Resuscitation Bundle
3-hour Bundle
Serum lactate measured within 3 hours of
presentation in adults
• Blood cultures obtained prior to antibiotic
administration; additional cultures to determine
potential site of infection
• Early and appropriate broad-spectrum antibiotic
administration
• within 3 hour for ED presentation.
• within 1 hour for floors/ICU presentation.
• In the event of hypotension and/or a lactate >4
mmol/L, deliver a minimum of 30 ml/kg of fluids in
adults.
a minimum of 20mL/kg of fluids in children.
•
Best Practice Treatment of Severe Sepsis
Resuscitation Bundle
6-hour Bundle
•
•
•
•
Vasopressor therapy for persistent hypotension
(MAP <65 in adults) despite initial fluid administration
Re-measure lactate if the initial value was elevated
Invasive

A central venous catheter capable of measuring CVP
(original study and recommendation.

New recommendations; no longer requires the use of
CVP or ScvO2 if early recognition of sepsis and timely
antibiotics administration has occurred.
Non-invasive

Contraindications for invasive track

Trending of lactate levels to gauge fluid response

Sepsis care bundles

3 hour bundle completed within 3 hours of
presentation

6 hour bundle all task completed within 6 hours of
presentations.

The CLOCK BEGINs once the patient meets SIRS
criteria.

For patients who present to the Emergency
department, this means “zero” hour is at
presentation to triage.

For inpatients, the “zero” hour is when the
patients vital signs first meet SIRS criteria,
regardless of when it was recognized and treated.

We are held to this standards
by Centers for Medicare as a
Core measure.
Fluid Challenge
What is the difference between an infusion and
a challenge?
Suggests hypotonic fluids, when used for resuscitation and
maintenance volume therapy, place the acutely ill patient
at significant risk for hyponatremia. Isotonic fluid should be
used.
250 to 500 ml colloid (or blood products)
500 to 1000ml LR
[NOT 5% dextrose]
As fast a possible (with pressure bag)
You at the bedside
Markers of perfusion
What are they?

Clinical signs


Hemodynamic variables


Warm skin, conscious level, u/o
CVP
Bloods

Serum Lactate

ScvO2
CVP
What does it mean?
Starling’s Law
Estimate of LVEDV (i.e. preload)
Not always a good correlation with volume-responsiveness

Case 1
16:00: An 81 year-old woman was admitted to the emergency
department with nausea, vomiting and hypotension. She has a history
of hypertension, Type II Diabetes, renal insufficiency and dementia.
Home medications: aspirin, furosemide, tolterodine tartrate,
memantine, Valsartan, metformin, Lovastatin and niacin.
On admission she presented with low grade fever 37.9, a blood
pressure (BP) of 60/30 and heart rate (HR) of 130.
Lab results on admission included:
WBC 16.7k cells/ml,
Hgb 9.2gm/dl,
creatinine 1.6 mg/dl,
albumin 2.7mg/dL,
sodium 135 mEq/L and potassium 4.7 mEq/L.
Abdominal CT was within normal limits (WNL)
What are missing on labs that would be helpful? What other diagnostic
studies?
What is my differential diagnoses?

UA WBC’s greater than 20

Positive for nitrates

Lactic acid 4.2

Chest x-ray COPD no infiltrate
What would be our first line treatment?
The patient was treated with 2 liters of IV normal saline but her
BP remained low.
Dopamine was added and at a dose greater than 5mcg/kg/min
her HR increased to 150 bpm and the dose was reduced to
3mcg/Kg/min. Dobutamine was added at 7mcg/kg/min. The
patient was diagnosed with septic shock and admitted to the
Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
Treatment plan was fluids, pressors as needed and antibiotic
treatment.
What might have been a better treatment for her
hypotension?




Initial Resuscitation
1. hypotension persisting after initial fluid challenge or
blood lactate concentration ≥ 4 mmol/L. Goals during
the first 6 hrs of resuscitation:

a) Central venous pressure 8–12 mm Hg

b) Mean arterial pressure (MAP) ≥ 65 mm Hg c) Urine
output ≥ 0.5 mL/kg/hr d) Central venous (superior vena
cava) or mixed venous oxygen saturation 70% or 65%,
respectively (grade 1C).
2. In patients with elevated lactate levels targeting
resuscitation to normalize lactate
Newer guidelines


1. Administration of effective intravenous antimicrobials within the first
hour of recognition of septic shock (grade 1B) and severe sepsis without
septic shock (grade 1C) as the goal of therapy (broad then narrow once you
have definite source)
Fluid Therapy of Severe Sepsis

1. Crystalloids as the initial fluid of choice in the resuscitation of severe
sepsis and septic shock (grade 1B).

2. Against the use of hydroxyethyl starches for fluid resuscitation of severe
sepsis and septic shock (grade 1B).

3. Albumin in the fluid resuscitation of severe sepsis and septic shock when
patients require substantial amounts of crystalloids (grade 2C).

4. Initial fluid challenge in patients with sepsis-induced tissue hypo
perfusion with suspicion of hypovolemia to achieve a minimum of 30 mL/kg
of crystalloids (a portion of this may be albumin equivalent). More rapid
administration and greater amounts of fluid

may be needed in some patients (grade 1C).

5. Fluid challenge technique be applied wherein fluid administration is
continued as long as there is hemodynamic improvement either based on
dynamic (eg, change in pulse pressure, stroke volume variation) or static
(eg, arterial pressure, heart rate) variables (UG).

H. Vasopressors

1. Vasopressor therapy initially to target a mean arterial
pressure (MAP) of 65 mm Hg (grade 1C).

2. Norepinephrine as the first choice vasopressor (grade 1B).

3. Epinephrine (added to and potentially substituted for
norepinephrine) when an additional agent is needed to
maintain adequate blood pressure (grade 2B).

4. Vasopressin 0.03 units/minute can be added to
norepinephrine (NE) with intent of either raising MAP or
decreasing NE dosage (UG).

5. Low dose vasopressin is not recommended as the single
initial vasopressor for treatment of sepsis-induced hypotension
and vasopressin doses higher than 0.03-0.04 units/minute
should be reserved for salvage therapy (failure to achieve
adequate MAP with other vasopressor agents) (UG).

6. Dopamine as an alternative vasopressor agent to
norepinephrine only in highly selected patients (eg, patients
with low risk of tachyarrhythmia's and absolute or relative
bradycardia) (grade 2C).
