Podcast 598: Sepsis, Round One

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Early antibiotics have been shown to improve outcomes in septic patients time after time
  • Emerging evidence challenges the concept of one-size-fits-all large fluid boluses for septic shock patients and fluid may worsen patients who have underlying sepsis-induced pulmonary capillary leak
  • Starting peripheral vasopressors early, and relaxing if fluid resuscitation is successful, is appearing to be a more appropriate strategy than fluids first, then vasopressors
