Initial management of septic shock involves following the hour-1 sepsis bundle which includes drawing blood cultures, measuring serum lactate levels, administering appropriate antibiotics within 1 hour of recognition, giving a balanced crystalloid fluid resuscitation, and administering vasopressors if the patient is hypotensive despite fluid resuscitation. A novel early indicator of sepsis called monocyte distribution width (MDW), which can be measured from a routine complete blood count within 30 minutes, may help improve early sepsis detection when used in combination with other clinical factors. Proper recognition and management of sepsis within the first hour can help reduce morbidity and mortality.

Hello everyone, here is Mok Chi Kun, IC of emergency medicine.
My tutor is Dr. Choi Nim.
My topic of presentation is initial management of septic shock, and something new about that.
In the following, I would like to talk about a clinical scenario for sepsis, hour-1 bundle of surviving sepsis campaign and new parameter for sepsis.
Here is a scenario I met in our ward.
An 80y male patient, Hx of colon cancer post OP many years ago. Follow-up CT scan accidentally found GB stone.
He visited ER due to epigastric pain. Physical exam found fever and sclera icterus.
Bilirubin level was elevated so ERCP was requested, a small stone in 0.4cm came out and plastic stent was placed.
Post ERCP day 2, he was found dizziness, check Bp low, 70/40, blood gas found elevated lactate. Blood test found elevated inflammatory markers and AKI
So, What is the most probably cause of hypotension and initial management for this case?
The clinical picture suggested septic shock as the first impression since he had hx of prolonged biliary tract infection.
There was no other clues suggesting the hypotension was caused by another reason.
According to surviving sepsis campaign, the previous version of hour-3 and hour-6 bundle was replaced by Hour-1 bundle for initial resuscitation for sepsis and septic shock.
As we know, Sepsis is a medical emergency, we need to initiate hour-1 bundle upon recognition of sepsis or septic shock.
Including, measure the lactate level, obtain blood cultures, administer broad-spectrum of antibiotics.
Rapid administration of crystalloid, and apply vasopressors if hypotension to maintain MAP more than 65
Here is a question, which step do you thick is the most important step in this page?
And, I will give you my answer at the end.
First, obtain blood samples, and send for cultures and serum lactate.
If lactate is more than 2, repeat it later after initial resuscitation.
Then give antibiotic early.
For unknown source of infection, pip/tazo or meropenem.
If concerning MRSA or fungal infection, we add vancomycin or anidulafungin as well.
If known source of infection:
For lungs and urinary tract, we have beta-lactam, cephalosporin, macrolide and fluroquinolone
For intra-abdominal infection, we add metronidazole for anaerobic coverage.
Step 4
Rapid IV fluid boluses
30cc/kg, around 1 to 3 liters, usually we can give 2
In the past, many years ago, we used to choose NS.
But there is something new nowadays.
Normal saline is not normal, it not only rich in sodium, but also chloride.
Some patients with hypotension are fluid responsive, most cases are not and required vasopressor.
For those cases of fluid unresponsive, if we give fluid in order to increased Bp without vasopressor, we could not avoid to give too much fluid and chloride which leading to hyperchloremia.
If we give too much chloride, the macula densa detected high concentration of chloride which can lead to afferent arteriole constriction, hence decrease renal blood flow.
In sepsis, the patients might already had acute kidney injury, and chloride can make this situation worse.
To prevent this, we choose balanced solution such as lactated ringer.
Besides, we can limited fluids consumption by giving vasopressor earlier.
Severe hyperchloremia (>110mmol/L) was associated with increased risk of in-hospital AKI and increased mortality.
So. Instead of NS, we choose balanced fluid which chloride concentration is similar to serum level.
Step 5 is vasopressor. Give until MAP reach 65
To treat the low blood pressure, We usually start off with fluids
But fluid should only be given to those fluid responsive patient
Most forms of shock are not only due to hypovolemia as this slide showed, bedsides, vasodilation and cardio-inhibition can also contribute to low blood pressure.
Many patients with low Bp are fluid unresponsive
Then, we need to add vasopressor, the first line is epinephrine, the second is vasopressin.
We can limit fluids by giving vasopressor earlier to avoid giving to much chloride.
Here is early versus delayed administration of vasopressor
From the picture below, we can see early used of vasopressor can reach target MAP earlier, besides improved serum lactate clearance.
Adversely, delayed used of vasopressor in patients with septic shock will have adverse effect on mortality.
We want to give vasopressor early but the problem here is we did not have central venous access.
In general, when we first encounter a patient with septic shock, we didnt have any central venous access.
We want to give vasopressor early, we need a central line to prevent extravasation, but waiting for a central line can delay the use of vasopressor.
Some studies demonstrate the safety of peripheral administration of vasopressor.
It included 700 cases, received dopamine, epinephrine and phenylephrine for at least 30 hours. 19 cases was found extravasation without tissue injury after local used of phentolamine or NTG.
For sure, we should choose a large bore, secure IV access for vasopressor.
Here is the problem, the hour-1 bundle required early recognition of sepsis or septic shock.
If fail to early recognized, the hour-1 bundle cannot be initiated, and also delayed the treatment.
Current guidelines emphasize on the benefit of early detection of sepsis.
Each hour delay of antibiotic treatment is associated with 5-10% mortality increase.
So, How to recognize sepsis?
Is there any limitation for those method?
Early recognition of sepsis is challenging.
In the past, we had sepsis-2 and now upgrade to sepsis-3 to detect sepsis. The criteria were shown above.
Sepsis-2 is suspect or known source of infection, plus SIRS positive
Sepsis-3 is suspect or known source of infection, plus qSOFA positive
The elements in the blue box are subjective and those in red are objective, so that sepsis criteria remained subjective to detect sepsis.
We can compare the performance of sepsis-2 and sepsis-3 criteria by comparing SIRS and qSOFA.
SIRS and qSOFA have similar areas under the ROC curve, indicating that they have a similar overall test performance.
qSOFA has a higher specificity than SIRS, but this comes at the cost of a lower sensitivity. Thus, qSOFA is not better than SIRS, it has merely traded sensitivity for specificity.
Further, the overall sensitivity of sepsis-3 might be lower than 50%.
Neither sensitive nor specific enough to detect sepsis.
Question 4 again, How to improve sepsis recognition?
There are more than 10 items of early sepsis indicator
Since there is some limitation, price, technique and time, CRP and PCT become the most popular and practical. But they are not sensitive or specific enough for sepsis detection.
Recently, there was a prospective cohort study found that monocyte distribution width is a novel indicator for early sepsis detection.
When people get infected, the immune system start to defense. Including complement and neutrophils. Neutrophil cannot detect the cell wall of the bacteria and start cytotoxic effect.
The same for the monocyte, they start phagocytosing.
When the bacteria of the local infection gets into the blood, they met monocyte. The monocytes start to engulf and destroyed the microbes.
Since the ingestion and phagocytosis, the monocytes increased in their size
Therefore, we can detect the elevation of monocyte distribution width in the peripheral blood.
The cut-off value of MDW for sepsis is < 20
More importantly, this item and analyzer were available in our lab and it will be released for clinical practice in the future.
It takes 45 minutes of time for processing, make it fits into the hour-1 bundle.
Compare the MDW for those patients with local infection and sepsis.
The sepsis group had higher MDW and usually > 20
Compare to WBC or sepsis-2 alone, combination with MDW will improve the detection of sepsis.
Normal WBC or sepsis-2 criteria, combination with normal MDW will further decrease the probability of sepsis.
If a patient with sepsis-2 criteria and MDW are all abnormal, the probability of sepsis is 90&
If WBC and MDW are normal, the probability of sepsis is less than 3%.
The price for my case to normalize Bp by 3L of fluid.
It takes 3 hours of monitor and finally need vasopressor to go for CT.
Meropenem
And need 4 days to recover.
For the initial management of sepsis, the hour-1 bundle included blood cultures, lactate, antibiotic, balanced solution for IV fluid and early administration of vasopressor.
Peripheral IV access remain safe and should not delay giving vasopressor
Novel early sepsis indicator: NDW can improve early sepsis recognition
