Early Goal-directed Therapy
Protocolized Care for Early Septic Shock (ProCESS) NCT (expected study completion August 2013)
Crit Care Med 2010; 38:367 Surviving Sepsis Campaign N=15,022 Sepsis Resuscitation (6 H) Bundle Measure Serum Lactate Administer broad-spectrum antibiotics (<3 h) Early resuscitation to EGDT Targets Sepsis Management Bundle Low-dose corticosteroids Drotrecogin alfa Tight glucose control Plateau Pressure < 30 cm H2O
Crit Care Med 2006; 34:1589 N=2,731 adults with septic shock Only 50% of pts received antimicrobial therapy within 6 h of documented hypotension! Early Antibiotics “Door to antibiotics” decreased from 143 to 38 minutes TCH Sepsis Protocol Cruz et al. Pediatrics 2011; 127:e758
Crit Care Med 2006; 34:1589 N=2,731 adults with septic shock Only 50% of pts received antimicrobial therapy within 6 h of documented hypotension! Early Antibiotics “Door to Antibiotics” < 3 hours Primary Children’s Sepsis Protocol Larsen et al. Pediatrics 2011; 127:e1585
Arch Dis Child 2001; 85:386 Reduction in mortality from 23% to 2.5%! Early Resuscitation
Pediatrics 2003; 112:793 Early Resuscitation
Intensive Care Med 2008; 34:1065 Minimize variation Early Resuscitation
Minimize variation Early Resuscitation Intensive Care Med 2008; 34:1065
Minimize variation Early Resuscitation 28-day Mortality 39.2% versus 11.8% Intensive Care Med 2008; 34:1065
Minimize variation Early Resuscitation No differences in HR, MAP, CVP, ScvO2, or Lactate at Baseline, 6 H, or 72 H Intensive Care Med 2008; 34:1065
Minimize variation Early Resuscitation No differences in TOTAL fluid volume administered at 72 H Significant differences in amount of fluid volume administered at 6 H Early administration of inotropes Intensive Care Med 2008; 34:1065
Final Thoughts 1.Protocolized care to minimize practice variations. 2.Early recognition = Early Treatment 3.Better therapeutic endpoints are on the horizon
