Diagnosis of Sepsis / Infection
Antibiotic TherapyIntravenous ABX should be started within 1 hr of
recognition of severe sepsis, after cultures obtained.
Initial empiric ABX should include > 1 drug with activity against likely pathogens.

Source ControlPts with sepsis should be evaluated for focus
amenable to source control (e.g., drain abscess, debride necrotic tissue, etc.) as rapidly as possible (within 6 hours)
Once a focus is identified (e.g., abscess, GI perforation, cholangitis, etc.) source controls measures should be instituted ASAP afterresuscitation with least insulting intervention

Intra-abdominal Sepsis: Treatment
Correct the primary pathology!!!? exploratory surgery
resect, patch, repair, debride, or drain underlying cause
Aggressive resuscitation and monitoringenormous "third space" fluid losses
Important role for appropriate antibiotics
knowledge of pathogens based on origin of bacterial inoculation
“Damage Control” Laparotomy
Focus treatment on immediately life-threatening injuries.
Non-life-threatening injuries can be treated at planned reoperation.
Avoids hypothermia.
Examples:- Pack liver injuries.- Delay bowel anastamoses, stoma- Delay vascular reconstruction IF feasible.
Patients Who May Benefit from Damage Control Approach
Kourkalis G, Surg Today (2002) 32:195–202
Hemodynamically unstable
Coagulopathy
Hypothermia (< 35°C)
Complex and major visceral injuries
Inability to control bleeding
Severe acidosis (<7.30)
Operative time > 90 minutes
Transfusion ≥ 10 U PRBC
Temporary Abdominal Closure

Bogota Bag(sterile plastic sheet sewn to skin)
Topical Negative Pressure Therapy (VAC)

Predisposing Factors for IAH after Damage Control Surgery
Kourkalis G, Surg Today (2002) 32:195–202
Severe abdominal injuries
Spillage of intestinal contents (massive contamination)
Intra-abdominal packing for coagulation
Massive transfusions with bowel edema and/or congestion
Failure to control bleeding with resultant worsening acidosis and coagulopathy

ACS TreatmentInitial Treatment
Treatment of underlying cause
Supportive care with monitoring
Optimized fluid resuscitation
Evacuation of intraluminal contents
- mechanical or pharmacologic
Mechanical ventilation
+/- Vasopressors
If no response to initial treatment
Surgical abdominal decompressionNeuromuscular blockade + mechanical ventilation
Dialysis

Complicated (Severe) Skin and Soft Tissue Infections
Classification of SSTIs
• Superficial infections
– Cellulitis
– Impetiginous lesions
– Furuncles
– Simple abscesses
• Can be treated by surgical incision and drainage alone
• Deep soft tissue infections
• May require surgical intervention
– Infected ulcers
– Infected burns
– Major abscesses
• Significant underlying disease state, which complicates response to treatment
FDA. Available at: http://www.fda.gov/cder/guidance/2566dft.pdf. Accessed June 14, 2005.
Uncomplicated Complicated
Severe* Soft Tissue Infections(* severe = requires “surgical intervention” to treat)
• Extensive tissue destruction• High mortality rate• Mixed aerobic and anaerobic
– gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria• Recognize early and treat promptly
– Surgical Rx: debride all necrotic tissue– May require amputation– Worry about reconstruction later
Soft Tissue Gas on Radiographs: “Fournier” Gangrene
External Appearances Can Be Deceiving!
Aggressive (appropriate) Debridement is Cornerstone of Soft Tissue Surgical Treatment
Necrotizing Infection of Extremity
Completed Debridement
- often large open wounds
Vacuum-Assisted Wound Closure (VAWC)
Suliburk JW. Vacuum-Assisted Wound Closure Achieves Early Fascial Closure of Open Abdomens after Severe Trauma. J Trauma 2003, 55: 1155-1160.
Microbiology of Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infections
Monomicrobial
– Streptococcus pyogenes
– Streptococcus viridans
– Clostridium sp.
Rare monomicrobial– Aspergillus– Vibrio vulnificans
Polymicrobial most common
– Staphylococus aureus
– Anaerobic streptococci
– Aerobic gram-negative bacilli
– Bacteroides fragilis--unusual
Summary: Management of Surgical Infection
• Surgical infection/ sepsis recognition.
• Initiate antibiotics, resuscitation, and source control early!
• Surgical infections usually polymicrobial.
• Debridement, repair, resection are most important principles of surgical intervention.
• Damage control is not just for trauma.• High index of suspicion for IAH / ACS.• Broad applications for negative pressure therapy.
