This document describes the case of a 63-year-old female who was found collapsed at home and exhibited signs of acute confusion and sepsis. Initial observations found her to have a low blood pressure, fast heart rate, and altered mental status. Her history included a recent UTI and various medical conditions. Investigations showed signs of infection and organ dysfunction. She received IV fluids, antibiotics, and was transferred to the ICU for management of septic shock based on the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines. The guidelines aim to standardize sepsis care through bundles for early resuscitation and management to reduce mortality from this leading cause of ICU admissions and deaths.

Bundles A "bundle" is a group of therapies for a given disease that, when implemented together, may result in better outcomes than if implemented individually. In a bundle, the individual elements included are built around best evidence-based practices. The science supporting the individual treatment strategies in a bundle is sufficiently mature such that implementation of the approach should be considered either best practice or a reasonable and generally accepted practice.
· ··Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). Defined by the presence of two or more of the following findings:
· ··Body temperature < 36 °C (97 °F) or > 38 °C (100 °F) (··hypothermia or ··fever).
· ··Heart rate > 90 beats per minute.
· ··Respiratory rate > 20 breaths per minute or, on ··blood gas, a PaCO2 less than 32 ··mm Hg (4.3 ··kPa) (··tachypnea or ··hypocapnia due to ··hyperventilation).
· ··White blood cell count < 4,000 cells/··mm3 or > 12,000 cells/mm3 (< 4 × 109 or > 12 × 109 cells/··L), or greater than 10% band forms (immature white blood cells). (··leukopenia, ··leukocytosis, or ··bandemia).
· Sepsis. Defined as SIRS in response to a confirmed infectious process. Infection can be suspected or proven (by culture, stain, or ··polymerase chain reaction (PCR)), or a clinical syndrome pathognomonic for infection. Specific evidence for infection includes WBCs in normally sterile fluid (such as urine or ··cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)); evidence of a perforated ··viscus (free air on abdominal x-ray or CT scan; signs of ··acute peritonitis); abnormal chest x-ray (CXR) consistent with ··pneumonia (with focal opacification); or ··petechiae, ··purpura, or ··purpura fulminans.
· Severe sepsis. Defined as sepsis with organ dysfunction, hypoperfusion, or hypotension.
· ··Septic shock. Defined as sepsis with refractory arterial ··hypotension or hypoperfusion abnormalities in spite of adequate fluid resuscitation. Signs of systemic ··hypoperfusion may be either end-organ dysfunction or serum lactate greater than 4 mmol/L. Other signs include ··oliguria and ··altered mental status. Patients are defined as having ··septic shock if they have sepsis plus hypotension after aggressive fluid resuscitation (typically upwards of 6 liters or 40 ml/kg of ··crystalloid solution).

Inconsistency in the early diagnosis of severe sepsis and septic shock 2. Frequent inadequate volume resuscitation without defined endpoints3. Late or inadequate use of antibiotics 4. Frequent failure to support the cardiac output when depressed5. Frequent failure to control hyperglycemia adequately 6. Frequent failure to use low tidal volumes and pressures in acute lung injury 7. Frequent failure to treat adrenal inadequacy in refractory shock
Theseare often multifactorial and include group education, the use
of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement toolkits to aid with
incorporation of recommendations, close collaboration with
other medical specialties such as critical care, standardized
order sets, and collecting feedback
