Bootcamp- Sepsis Adam Manko, M.D. PGY-3 Internal Medicine University Hospitals Case Medical Center
Goals • Sepsis – Definition • Initial Management • Medications • Mechanical Ventilation - Briefly • What Your Senior Expects From You • Summary
Case • 69 y/o Male presented to ER with shortness of breath. • VS 38.3 88/46 114 28 86% • He is placed onto 50% ventimask, but continues to have low oxygen saturation and is intubated in the ER. • He is given 2L of NS and repeat BP is 92/44
Defining Sepsis 1 • Sepsis is a continuum….. • SIRS • Sepsis • Severe Sepsis • Septic Shock • Refractory Septic Shock • Multi-Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS)
Defining Sepsis 2 • SIRS Criteria • Temperature >38.3 (or >38.0 for 1 hour) or <36.0 • WBC >12k or <4k, or >10% bandemia • RR >20, or paCO2 <32mmHg • HR >90
Defining Sepsis 3 • Sepsis = SIRS + suspected infection • Does not have to be culture proven infection to begin treatment for Sepsis
Defining Sepsis 4 • Severe sepsis = sepsis + and signs of at least one organ dysfunction thought to be from tissue hypoperfusion • Hypotension • Elevated lactate • Urine output <0.5ml/kg • Acute Lung Injury with PaO2/FiO2 ratio of <250 • ARDS • Acute Renal Failure • Elevated bilirubin • Platelet Count <100,000 • Coagulopathy with INR >1.5 • Altered Mental Status • Abnormal EEG findings • Cardiac Dysfunction
Initial Management • “Early Goal Directed Therapy” • Goal SBP >90 • Goal MAP >65 • Goal Hemoglobin 7-9 • Goal urine output >0.5ml/kg/hr • Goal normalized serum lactate • Goal Mixed Venous >70% • Central Venous >65%
Hypotension • Goal SBP >90, MAP >65, Hgb 7-9 • IVF bolus with NS • What if you give IVF and remains hypotensive? • Need to check a CVP!!!
What is a CVP • CVP • = Central Venous Pressure • What is the utility of a CVP • Estimates the Right Atrial Pressure • What is a Normal Right Atrial Pressure • <6
What do you need for a CVP? • Place a CVC = Central Venous Catheter • Locations include • Internal Jugular • Subclavian
Goal CVP • CVP >8 • If intubated, CVP >12 • What if still hypotensive but at goal CVP?
Pressors • Norepinephrine • First Line pressor (preferred agent over dopamine • (NEJM 2010 Comparison of Dopamine and Norepinephrine in the Treatment of Shock) • Mainly A1, some B1 • Dosing in mcg/min • Typically uptitrate to max of ~30 mcg/min • Vasopressin • Second line pressor • Entirely V1 • Can be titrated, however we typically turn it “on or off” at dose of 0.04 U/min
Pressors - 2 • Phenylephrine • Weaker pressor, A1 activity • Less arrhythmogenic • Dopamine • Dose dependent • Low dose 1-3mcg/kg/min = “renal” dosing, almost all D1 • Medium dose 3-10mcg/kg/min = B1 and D1 • High Dose >10mcg/kg/min = “pressor” dosing
Pressors - 3 • Epinephrine • “king of pressors” • Used as last line pressor at our institution • Side effect includes increased risk of intestinal ischemia
Mixed Venous and Central Venous Saturations • Mixed Venous >70 • Mixed venous taken from a swan-ganz catheter • Central Venous >65% • Taken from Central Line in the SVC
Venous Saturation • High Venous saturation with unclear utility • Low Venous saturation means increased extraction peripherally • How to increase mixed venous saturation, you have 2 option • Increase hematocrit • Increase cardiac output • Dobutamine
Corticosteroids • Consider when refractory hypotension • when you are adding 2ndpressor, think of adding steroids!! • No longer recommended to do ACTH stim or random cortisol • Empirically add hydrocortisone, dose 50mg q6h
Antibiotics • Antibiotics within 1 hour • Typically vancomycin and zosyn are first line agents if unclear of source • Start broad and narrow when source identified
Glycemic Control • Maintain tight blood glucose control with goal 140-180 • If unable to manage easily (you get 2 tries with SQ insulin) then start on insulin gtt • Protocol driven by nursing • FYI this is different than the DKA protocol • (2010 NEJM – Glycemic Control in the ICU)
Prophylaxis • DVT • If no contra-indications…. • Heparin SQ preferred agent • If contraindications • SCDs and TED hose • Stress Ulcer • PPI or H2 blocker
Mechanical Ventilation • Protective Lung Ventilation Strategy • ARDSnet protocol • Low tidal volumes • 6ml/kg of IBW • PEEP • Goal plateau pressure <30 • (2007 NEJM - Low Tidal Volume Ventilation in the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) • (2000 NEJM – Ventilation with Lower Tidal Volumes as Compared with Traditional Tidal Volumes for Acute Lung Injury and the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome)
RRT, HD, UF, CRRT,CVVH, CVVHD…..What? • RRT = Renal Replacement Therapy • HD = Hemodialysis • UF = Ultrafiltration • CRRT = Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy • CVVH = Continuous veno-venous hemofiltration • CVVHD = Continuous veno-venous hemodialysis
Indications for RRT • A • Acidosis • E • Electrolyte imbalance • I • Intoxication • O • Fluid Overload • U • Uremia
Miscellaneous • Sedation • Versed for anxiety • Fentanyl for pain • Haldol for agitation • Propofyl • Precedex
What Your Senior Expects From You • Assess the patient!!(Go into room, not look in EMR first) • Labs • CBC • RFP • LFTs • Coag • Type and Screen • Lactate!!! • In the right setting • Troponin, amylase, lipase, etc • Microbiology • Blood cultures x2 • UA and culture • +/- sputum culture • Imaging • CXR, +/- KUB • CT in right setting
What Your Senior Expects From You • Check for Access • Prep for CVC • If hypotensive, need invasive hemodynamic monitoring • Central Line (CVC) • Arterial Line • Other • HD Catheter? • Introducer (Cordis)?
What Your Senior Expects From You • Get us if you are uncomfortable in a situation, aka the patient is very sick and crashing!! • STAY CALM!!! • Nurses are your friend or worst enemy, the choice is yours!! • They have taken care of more patients than you, they often know what the next step is, use them as a resource!!
Case • 69 y/o Male presented to ER with shortness of breath. • VS 38.3 88/46 114 28 86% • He is placed onto 50% ventimask, but continues to have low oxygen saturation and is intubated in the ER. • He is given 2L of NS and repeat BP is 92/44
Summary • Identify Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock Early • IVF • Early invasive hemodynamic monitoring • Goal endpoints • Urine output, SBP, MAP, lactate, central venous sat, CVP <8 or 12 • Pressors and Steroids • Cultures and ABX
Questions? • Thank you!!!
