Erin's Story
It is the clinical syndrome that results from a dysregulated inflammatory response to an infection (UpToDate, 2012).
Sepsis is not a specific event in time, but rather a syndrome that occurs on a continuum.
![Page 3: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
~750,00 cases annually (trend has been on a steady increase since the 70’s)
Thought to be influenced by:
aging population
increase in immune suppressed population
increased drug resistant diseases
~200,000 deaths/year
Patients >65 account for nearly 60% of all cases(Angus, et all, 2001).

Increased incidence during winter months
30-50% mortality, severity dependent
Septic patients have 2x as long hospital stay as patients without
Costs the health care system over $16 billion dollars annually

SIRS SepsisSeptic Shock
MODS Death
![Page 7: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Clinical syndrome that results from a dysregulated inflammatory response, but is due to a non-infectious source.
Examples:
Acute pancreatitis
Trauma
Burns
Surgery
![Page 8: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
SIRS requires 2 or more of the following derangements:
Temp >38.3: (100.4:F) or <36:C (96.8:F)
HR >90
RR >20 or PaCO2 >32 (normal 35-45)
WBC >12,000 or <4,000 or >10% immature cells (bands)
![Page 9: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
A systemic inflammatory response to infection, triggers cascade of inflammation, coagulation and impaired fibrolysis.
This out of control inflammatory process results in vasodilitation, increased capillary permeability and clotting.
Same criteria as SIRS, however, occurs within a context of known infection.
![Page 10: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Sepsis plus at least one of the following signs of hypoperfusion or end organ damage
Areas of mottled skin
Delayed capillary refill
Urine output of <0.5 mL/kg for at least one hour or renal replacement therapy
Lactate >2 mmol/L
AMS
Abnormal EEG findings
Platelet count <100,000
DIC
Acute lung injury or ARDS
Cardiac dysfunction
![Page 11: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Exists if there is severe sepsis & one or both of the following:
Systemic mean blood pressure <60 mmHg despite adequate fluid resuscitation
Maintaining systemic mean blood pressure >60 mmHg requires vasopressors despite adequate fluid resuscitation
Vassopressor use is a significant predictor of mortality
![Page 12: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Altered function of one or more organs
Primary and secondary MODSPrimary: direct injury/insult to organs that results from a specific event (i.e. pulmonary contusion, liver laceration)
Secondary: indirect injury/insult to organs as a result of systemic event (i.e. SIRS, sepsis)
Mortality with MODS is very high; proportionate to the number of organs involved
2 organ failure mortality 45-55%
3 organ failure mortality >80%

(Bone, et al., 1992).
![Page 15: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Localized site of infection, initiates a localized inflammatory response
White blood cells converge to the site of infectionNeutrophils, macrophages
Localized infection can lead to bloodstream infection (bactermia), this is sepsis
Bacteria release endotoxins
Immune system releases proinflammatorymediators (prostaglandins, cytokines)
Endotoxins
![Page 17: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Cytokines are immunomodulators (interleukons& interferons) released by WBCs and cause:
Vasodilitation
Increased capillary permeability
Increased coagulation
Prostaglandins in the inflammatory process cause vasodilitation, inhibit platelet aggregation and effect the hypothalamus with regards to thermoregulation (fever)
![Page 18: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Vasodilitation is mechanism used to increase blood flow to affected areas allowing for better transport of WBCs
Without corresponding increase in blood volume, hypotension follows
Increased capillary permeability leads to fluid leak third spacing & further volume loss
Impaired fibrinolysis causes decreased clot breakdownmicrothrombi, then tissue hypoperfusion, necrosis & organ failure
![Page 19: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Third-spacing/Capillary leak
Microthrombi
![Page 20: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
In septic shock, the body’s compensatory mechanisms are overwhelmed by malignant inflammatory response.
Leading to:Reduced coronary blood flow with decreased CO, BP & tissue perfusion
Pro-inflammatory cytokines cause imbalances between clotting & lysis, impairing circulation to tissues/organs, third spacing & worsening hypotension
Brain fails to respond with vasomotor responses to hypotension
Peripheral ischemia occurs due to prolonged shunting & microemboli
Survival at this stage in the cascade is <10%

WBCs elevated or suppressed (>12,000<4,000) or normal with >10% bands
Documented infection
Increased lactate >4 mmol/L
Coagulation disturbancesLow fibrinogen, increased fibrin split products
Thrombocytopenia
Elevated INR or PTT

The key to sepsis treatment is: PREVENTIONHAND WASHING
Proper line management
VAP protocols
Hand washing
Catheter removal
Early mobility
Did I mention hand washing already?
![Page 25: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
![Page 26: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Broad spectrum antibiotics within first 1-3 hours
Corticosteroids, if persistent hypotension despite adequate fluid resuscitation; may indicate adrenal insufficiency
no longer requires cortisol stim test to start therapy
Vasopressors, for hemodynamic support after adequate fluid resuscitation
Xigris (drotrecogin alfa) voluntarily pulled from the market in 10/2011 as studies showed no benefit
![Page 27: Sepsis rev](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103018/55a725f01a28ab00188b48a1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Stroke: Time is brain
MI: Time is muscle
Sepsis: Time is tissueWith every hour that intervention is delayed, survival drops by 10%
Early recognition and intervention are key to successful outcomes
Prevention is the key to sepsis
