Sepsis and Septic Shock
• Definitions
• Epidemiology
• Pathogenesis
• Principles of management
Definitions
• Infection: microbial phenomenon
characterised by an inflammatory response to
the presence of micro organisms or the
invasion of normally sterile host tissue by
these organisms
• Bacteraemia: the presence of bacteria in the
bloodstream
• Septicaemia: no longer used
ACCP/SCCM Consensus Conference: Bone et al, Chest 1992 101:1644
Definitions
• Sepsis: systemic response to infection manifested by
≥ 2 of:
–
–
–
–
Temp > 38oC or < 36oC
HR > 90 bpm
RR > 20 bpm or PaCO2 < 32 mmHg
WBC > 12 x 109/L, < 4 x 109/L or >10% band form
• Septic shock: sepsis with hypotension despite
adequate fluid resuscitation, with perfusion
abnormalities that could include, but are not
limited to, lactic acidosis, oliguria, and/or acute
mental status.
ACCP/SCCM Consensus Conference: Bone et al, Chest 1992 101:1644
SIRS and Sepsis
• SIRS: Systemic Inflammatory Response
Syndrome
• Fever, leucocytosis, organ failure
• Recognises difficulty of always identifying
infection, but…
• As a result, high sensitivity but low specificity

Management
Management of Sepsis
• Recognition
• Supportive care
• Source control
• Antibiotics
• Specific (adjunctive) therapy

Initial resuscitation of sepsis:
therapeutic goals
• Central venous pressure: 8 – 12 mmHg
• Mean arterial pressure: ≥ 65 mmHg
• Urine output: 0.5 mL/kg/h
• Central venous (SVC) or mixed venous
oxygen saturation: ≥ 70%

Issues in the rational choice of antibiotics
EFFICACY
• Spectrum of activity
• Pharmacokinetics & pharmacodynamics
• Patterns of resistance
TOXICITY
COST
Choosing antibiotics in sepsis
• There is no, single, “best” regimen
• Consider the site of the infection
• Consider which organisms most often cause
infection at that site
• Choose antibiotic(s) with the appropriate
spectrum
• After obtaining cultures, give antibiotics
quickly and empirically at appropriate dose
Inadequate treatment of bloodstream infections
increases ICU mortality
Ibrahim et al, Chest 2000 118:146
“Non-antibiotic” therapy for sepsis
• Low dose steroids
• Intensive insulin therapy
– tight glycaemic control
• Activated protein C
• Goal directed therapy
Effect of steroids on 28 day mortality
RR 0.88 (0.78 to 0.99) p = 0.03
Favours treatment
Annane et al, BMJ 2004 329:480
Favours control
Effect of steroids on shock reversal
RR 1.6 (1.27 to 2.03) p < 0.0001
Favours control
Annane et al, BMJ 2004 329:480
Favours treatment
CORTICUS
• International, prospective double-blind
RCT of hydrocortisone in patients with
moderate – severe septic shock
• HC 50 mg q6h for 5 d then tapering to d
11. No fludrocortisone.
• Primary EP 28 d mortality in
nonresponders
Sprung et al, N Engl J Med 2008 358:111
CORTICUS - Results
• No effect on 28 day mortality in whole
population or pre-identified subgroups
• Did not reverse shock in whole
population or pre-identified subgroups
• Did reduce the time to shock reversal
• No significant problem with superinfection

Drotrecogin alfa (activated) is not effective in adults
with severe sepsis and a low risk of death*, and is
associated with an increased rate of serious bleeding
* APACHE II < 25 or
Single organ failure
Abraham et al, NEJM 2005 353: 1332. ADDRESS trial group
PROWESS – Continuing debate
• Is there confidence in the baseline
comparability of the populations – especially
the subpopulations?
• There are variable outcomes depending on
the severity marker used (IL6, APII, SOFA)
• There is no confirmatory study
• ADDRESS severe subgroup did not show
benefit
Early goal directed therapy
• Purpose: to adjust cardiac preload, afterload
and contractility to balance oxygen delivery
with oxygen demand
• Entry criteria: patients in the emergency dept
with severe sepsis & shock
• Plan: randomise to 6h of EGDT before transfer
to ICU
Rivers et al, N Engl J Med 2001 345:1368
Early Goal Directed Therapy
• A/E admissions with severe sepsis/shock
treated for 6 h before ICU transfer
• Protocol designed to achieve:
– CVP ≥ 8 – 12 mmHg
– MAP ≥ 65 mmHg
– ScvO2 ≥ 70%
– Urine output ≥ 0.5 ml/kg.hr
