Sepsis Care in 2015
The document discusses updates on sepsis care protocols, including blood pressure targets, transfusion strategies, and the effectiveness of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines. Key findings suggest that early fluid administration and a restrictive transfusion strategy are beneficial, while SIRS criteria are not sufficiently sensitive for detecting severe sepsis. Additionally, recent trials show no mortality benefits from enhanced goal-directed therapy compared to usual care practices.

Editor's Notes
- #5ย BP Threshold in Sepsis โ MAP 65 vs 85mmHg Hb Transfusion Targets โ 7 vs 9 g/dL SIRS for Screening of Sepsis Sepsis Trilogy (ProCESS, ARISE, & PROMISE)
- #6ย The Rivers Protocol: If CVP < 8 mmHg then IVF until CVP >8 mmHg If MAP <65 mmHg then start pressors until MAP โฅ 65 mmHg (i.e. worried about too much IVF) If ScvO2 <70% then start PRBC transfusion until HCT โฅ 30%
- #7ย Surviving Sepsis Campaign Recommends a MAP โฅ 65 mmHg in patients with septic shock Grade 1c Recommendation = Strong Recommendation, but founded on weak evidence Higher MAP may be beneficial
- #8ย Ledoux D et al: 10 patients with septic shock ๏ Increased pressors to MAP of 65, 75, and 85 mmHg ๏ Increasing the MAP from 65 mm Hg to 85 mm Hg with norepinephrine increased CO, but no diff in lactate or UOP Bourgoin A et al: 28 patients with septic shock ๏ Increased pressors to MAP of 65 to 85 mmHg ๏ Increased CO, but no difference renal function or UOP Increasing MAP had no effect on Lactate Clearance, Renal Fxn, or UOP
- #9ย Dunser et al ๏ Retrospective cohort study 274 septic patients ๏ One or more episodes of MAP <60 mmHg = increased risk of death by 2.96 One or more episodes of MAP < 75mmHg = increased need for renal replacement therapy
- #11ย SEPSISPAM Trial was published along side ProCESS trial April 2014 Multicenter, open label trial of 776 patients with septic shock from 29 hospitals in France Septic Shock = Sepsis with Refractory Hypotension after 30cc/kg bolus of IVF Primary Outcome: 28 day mortality Also looked to see if higher MAP beneficial in patients with chronic HTN
- #13ย No Difference in: High MAP vs Low MAP 28 Day Mortality: 36.6% vs 34.0% (p=0.57) 90 Day Mortality: 43.8% vs 42.3% (p=0.74) Survival w/o Need for Organ Support: 60.6% vs 62.1% (p = 0.66) ๏ Subgroup Analysis did show that patients with chronic HTN did have more doubling of Cr & Renal Replacement therapy in 1st week of care, but no difference at 28 days Difference in: High MAP vs Low MAP Rate of Afib: 6.7% vs 2.8% (p=0.02) Vasopressor Duration and Dose: Higher in High MAP Group (Levophed 0.40 ug/kg/min vs 0.35 ug/kg/min) and(4.7 days vs 3.7 days)
- #14ย Patients enrolled in SEPSISPAM Trial and ProCESS Trial fairly similar with similar pre-enrollment fluid administration and patients in ProCESS a bit sicker (i.e. Lower MAP, Higher Initial Lactate Levels) In the SEPSISPAM Trial patients were resuscitated with 3L IVF in the 1st 24 hours then started on pressors ๏ 28 Day Mortality 34.0 & 36.6% In the ProCESS Trial patients were resuscitated with 5L IVF in the 1st 6 hours ๏ Only half received pressors ๏ 60 Day Mortality 21.0%, 18.2%, and 18.9% Not definitive, but does tell me, we shouldnโt fear giving fluids early to patients in septic shock, we should push the fluids and not worry about the MAP as much
- #15ย Chasing CVPs and MAPs makes physicians feel better, but early IVF improves patient mortality
- #16ย The Rivers Protocol: If CVP < 8 mmHg then IVF until CVP >8 mmHg If MAP <65 mmHg then start pressors until MAP โฅ 65 mmHg (i.e. worried about too much IVF) If ScvO2 <70% then start PRBC transfusion until HCT โฅ 30%

- #28ย SIRS Temp > 100.4 or < 95.0 RR > 20 or PaCO2 < 32mmHg HR > 90/min WBC >12k or <4k or Band > 10% Sepsis = SIRS + Infection Severe Sepsis = Sepsis + Organ Dysfuncion Septic Shock = Severe Sepsis + Persistent Hypotension after 30cc/kg IVF Resuscitation Infection isnโt the only thing that can cause SIRS (poor specificity, but maybe also poor sensitivity)
- #29ย Severe Sepsis = Infection + Organ Dysfunction + 2 or more SIRS criteria This definition was created as a consensus statement from ACCP & SCCM in 1992 (Over 20 years ago)
- #31ย Retrospective Analysis of 109,663 patients in the 1st 24 hours in the ICU
- #32ย Positive Infection with Organ Dysfunction, then looked to see who had SIRS criteria Majority of Severe Sepsis patients had 2 or more SIRS Criteria But using 2 or more SIRS Criteria alone will miss 1 in 8 patients with Severe Sepsis
- #33ย APACHE III ๏ Severity of Illness (Pts SIRS+ were sicker) ๏ (24 vs 11) More Renal Failure in SIRS+ Severe Sepsis (18.9% vs 11.7%) Higher Mortality in SIRS+ Severe Sepsis (24.5% vs 16.1%)
- #34ย SIRS + Severe Sepsis: Mortality 36.1% ๏ 18.3% SIRS โ Severe Sepsis: Mortality 27.7 ๏ 8.5% SIRS+ with higher mortality rates, but the two had the exact same rate of decline in Mortality
- #35ย Each Additional SIRS Criteria Increased Mortality by 13% in a linear fashion without a transitional increase when 2 criteria were metโฆ.there is nothing magical about two SIRS Criteria
- #37ย The Big 3 Sepsis Studies: 1. ProCESS May 2014 2. ARISE October 2014 3. ProMISeโฆMarch 2015
- #39ย In order to be randomized in the studiesโฆ.3 things had to happenโฆ Septic shock recognized IVF 1 - 2 L before randomization Abx
- #41ย 3 arms in the ProCESS Trial ๏ No statistical difference in 60 day mortality Protocol Arm: Like EGDT, but A-lines not mandatory, and type of fluid and vasopressor not specified
- #42ย Single Center Study - More IVF & PRBC transfusions in 1st 6hrs in EGDT
- #43ย IVF in 1st 6 hours similar to Rivers Study Our usual care is a blend of EGDT: Pressors, CVC PRBC: Fewer most likely due to fewer ScvO2 readings
- #44ย Take Home Message: No clear superior method in management of septic shock patients, but did make it clear no one resuscitative pathway is bad or better. This gives flexibility in the management.
- #45ย Most of the centers in the ProCESS trial were large tertiary centersโฆ.maybe usual care not as feasible in smaller centers?
- #47ย 2 arms in the ARISE Trial ๏ No statistical difference in 90 day mortality EGDT Pragmatic Care: Whatever physicians thought best; Not checking Scv02
- #48ย 2.5L of IVF before randomization Similar IVF in 1st 6 hours But again a blend of EGDT in care: Pressors, A-Lines, CVC
- #49ย This trial took place in a significant proportion of non-tertiary metropolitan and rural EDs, which allows for more generalizability of results, unlike ProCESS which took place in mostly University, Tertiary Care Hospitals
- #50ย In an empiric fluid strategy patients should get 3 โ 4.5 L IVF in 1st 6 hours based off ProCESS and ARISE
- #51ย We have lower mortality rates now compared to the 2001 Rivers et al study nowโฆ.why?
- #53ย 2 arms in the ProMISe Trial ๏ No statistical difference in 90 day mortality
- #54ย This study was set in a real-world context with 29%ย of recruiting hospitals beingย teaching facilities. 1L in 60 minutes of IVF prior to randomization Looking at the results, a significant portion of โusualโ care patients still get arterial catheters (62.2%), CVCs (50.9%), and vasopressors (46.6%).
- #55ย Is this the end of EGDT?!?
- #56ย First of all we should give credit to Emanual Riversโฆ.He has forever changed who we managed patients with sepsisโฆ..but even after >10years since his landmark trialโฆ.none of these other trials proved superiority
- #57ย The 2001 Rivers et al study has changed how we manage sepsis (i.e. We are more aggressive in identifying these patients, and our โusual careโ has changed to early identification, early IVFs and early antibiotics), which may explain why we have lower mortality rates now compared to the 2001 Rivers et al study
- #58ย What this tells me is that our โusualโ care has components of the EGDT algorithm engrained in it. ย Sick patients need fluids, antibiotics, and supportive therapies (i.e. Early critical care and resuscitation), but they donโt need CVP and SCVO2 monitoring to dictate their care .

OR TWO OF THE FOLLOWING: โข Measure CVP โข Measure ScvO2 โข Bedside cardiovascular ultrasound โข Dynamic assessment of fluid responsiveness with passive leg raise or fluid challenge Of note, the 6-hour bundle has been updated; the 3-hour SSC bundle is not affected.

- #63ย Questions
- #65ย Simply put, in septic shock, we need to be AGGRESSIVEย in our care EARLY. ย If patients are identified EARLY, given IVF EARLY, and antibiotics EARLY, again the key being EARLY,ย then the pathway used afterwards (i.e EGDT, Protocolized, or "usual care") is less important in management and resuscitation.
