Background • In 1914, Schottmueller wrote, “Septicaemia is a state of microbial invasion from a portal of entry into the blood stream which causes sign of illness.” The definition did not change much over the years, because the terms sepsis and septicaemia referred to several ill-defined clinical conditions present in a patient with bacteraemia. Dr.T.V.Rao MD

Definition of Septic Shock • Septic shock is a medical condition as a result of severe infection and sepsis, though the microbe may be systemic or localized to a particular site. It can cause multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (formerly known as multiple organ failure) and death. Its most common victims are children, immunocompromised individuals, and the elderly, as their immune systems cannot deal with the infection as effectively as those of healthy adults. Frequently, patients suffering from septic shock are cared for in intensive care units. The mortality rate from septic shock is approximatelyDr.T.V.Rao 25–50%. MD 3

Shock: Types • Hypovolemic • Septic (high CO, low SVRI) • Cardiogenic (high CVP) • Neurogenic • Anaphylactic • Adrenal insufficiency Dr.T.V.Rao MD

Definitions • Infection: microbial phenomenon characterised by an inflammatory response to the presence of micro organisms or the invasion of normally sterile host tissue by these organisms • Bacteraemia: the presence of bacteria in the bloodstream

• Septicaemia: no longer used ACCP/SCCM Consensus Conference: Bone et al, Chest 1992 101:1644 Dr.T.V.Rao MD

Definition • Shock:- When the cardiovascular system fails to deliver enough oxygen and nutrients to meet cellular metabolic needs. • Sepsis:- Presence of bacteria in the blood stream. • Septic Shock:- Begins with the development of septicaemia usually from bacterial infections, but can be viral in origin. This is the most common type of Distributive Shock.

Causes of Septic Shock • As mentioned any type of bacteria in the bloodstream causes septic shock and this can occur from many infections, for example:  The pope died from septic shock caused by a urinary infection  Simon has a chest infection  Other common reasons according to Collins (2000) are, major abdominal surgery and an invasive catheter.

Aetiology of Septic shock • When bacteria or viruses are present in the bloodstream, the condition is known as bacteraemia or Viremia. Sepsis is a constellation of symptoms secondary to infection that manifest as disruptions in heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature and WBC.. Once severe sepsis worsens to the point where blood pressure can no longer be maintained with intravenous fluids alone, then the criteria have been met for septic shock. The precipitating infections which may lead to septic shock if severe enough include appendicitis,

pneumonia, bacteraemia, diverticulitis, pyelonephritis, meningitis, pancreatitis, and necrotizing fasciitis. Dr.T.V.Rao MD

10

Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) • Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a term that was developed in an attempt to describe the clinical manifestations that result from the systemic response to infection. Criteria for SIRS are considered to be met if at least 2 of the following 4 clinical findings are present: • Temperature greater than 38°C (100.4°F) or less than 36°C (96.8°F) • Heart rate (HR) greater than 90 beats per minute (bpm) • Respiratory rate (RR) greater than 20 breaths per minute or arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) lower than 32 mm Hg • White blood cell (WBC) count higher than 12,000/µL or lower than 4000/µL, or 10% immature (band) forms Dr.T.V.Rao MD

Some Characteristics of Septic Shock • • • • • • •

Systemic vasodilation and hypotension Tachycardia; depressed contractility Vascular leakage and oedema; hypovolemic Compromised nutrient blood flow to organs Disseminated intravascular coagulation Abnormal blood gases and acidosis Respiratory distress and multiple organ failure Dr.T.V.Rao MD

Terminology Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) Temp > 38 or < 36 HR > 90 RR > 20 or PaCO2 < 32 WBC > 12 or < 4 or Bands > 10%

TWO out of four criteria acute change from baseline

Sepsis The systemic inflammatory response to infection.

Severe Sepsis Organ dysfunction secondary to Sepsis. e.g. hypoperfusion, hypotension, acute lung injury, encephalopathy, acute kidney injury, coagulopathy.

Septic Shock Hypotension secondary to Sepsis that is resistant to adequate fluid administration and associated with hypoperfusion.

Changing criteria of sepsis • With sepsis, at least 1 of the following manifestations of inadequate organ function/perfusion is typically included: • Alteration in mental state • Hypoxemia (arterial oxygen tension [PaO2] < 72 mm Hg at fraction of inspired oxygen [FiO2] 0.21; overt pulmonary disease not the direct cause of hypoxemia) • Elevated plasma lactate level • Oliguria (urine output < 30 mL or 0.5 mL/kg for at least 1 h) Dr.T.V.Rao MD 14

Pathophysiology • The nidus of infection: –Localized infections ( otitis, pneumonia, meningitis etc.,) –Colonization of mucosal and invasion ( Hib, menigococci) –Occult bacteremia ( 3mo to 3 years ) –Nosocomial : ‘at risk patients’ Dr.T.V.Rao MD

15

Causes of Septic Shock • As mentioned any type of bacteria in the bloodstream causes septic shock and this can occur from many infections, for example:  The pope died from septic shock caused by a urinary infection  Simon has a chest infection  Other common reasons according to Collins (2000) are, major abdominal surgery and an invasive catheter.

Management of Sepsis • Recognition • Supportive care • Source control • Antibiotics • Specific (adjunctive) therapy

Issues in the rational choice of antibiotics EFFICACY • Spectrum of activity

• Pharmacokinetics & pharmacodynamics • Patterns of resistance TOXICITY COST

Choosing antibiotics in sepsis • There is no, single, “best” regimen • Consider the site of the infection • Consider which organisms most often cause infection at that site • Choose antibiotic(s) with the appropriate spectrum • After obtaining cultures, give antibiotics quickly and empirically at appropriate dose Dr.T.V.Rao MD

28

“Non-antibiotic” therapy for sepsis • Low dose steroids • Intensive insulin therapy – tight glycaemic control • Activated protein C

• Goal directed therapy

Shock: Realize the Facts • Shock = inadequate tissue perfusion • Types of shock: hypovolemic, septic, cardiogenic, neurogenic, anaphylactic • Signs of shock: altered MS, tachycardia, hypotension, tachypnea, low UOP • Always start with ABCs • Resuscitation begins with fluid Dr.T.V.Rao MD
