3 SEVERE SEPSIS MANAGEMENT ISSUES IN SPECIAL HOSTS Ε. J. Giamarellos-Bourboulis, MD, PhD Associate Professor of Medicine 4 th Department of Internal Medicine University of Athens, Medical School, Greece Guest Professor, Center for Sepsis Control and Care, Jena University Hospital, Germany DISCLOSURE OF INTEREST Un-restricted educational grants from: AlfaWassermann SpA, Italy AbbVie SA, USA BRAHMS GmbH, Germany Merck Hellas SA Sanofi-Aventis Hellas SA Polyphor SA, CH Funded research by FP7 project HemoSpec Scientific advise/speaker for: AbbVie SA Biotest GmbH, Germany BRAHMS GmbH, Germany Clinigen SA Novartis SA, CH UNCOMPLICATED SEPSIS Any clinically or microbiologically documented Temperature >38 0 infection C or <36 0 C+ 2: Pulse rate >90 beats/min Breath rate >20/min or PaCO 2 <32 mmhg White blood cells >12000/mm 3 or <4000 mm 3 or >10% immature bands Levy M, et al. Crit Care Med 2003; 31: 1250

4 SEVERE SEPSIS Sepsis hypoperfusion + 1 organ failure ARDS PaO 2 /FiO 2 <200 + diffuse shadows in chest X-ray Central nervous system Abrupt change of mental status Acute renal failure Urine output <0.5 ml/h/kg weight last 2 h + normal balance Metabolic acidosis ph <7.30 or base deficit > 5 mmol/l + lactate > 2 x upper normal Acute coagulopathy PLTs < /mm 3 or INR >1.5 SEPTIC SHOCK Severe sepsis + systolic blood pressure < 90 mmhg despite adequate fluid resuscitation NEED FOR VASOPRESSORS Levy M, et al. Crit Care Med 2003; 31: 1250 WHAT IS A SPECIAL HOST? Immunocompromised (e.g. neutropenic) Under a situation heavily imposing on the microbiology Type of infection Type of failing organ NEED FOR AN INDIVIDUALIZED APPROACH

5 EARLY ANTIMICROBIALS!!! (Kumar A, et al. Crit Care Med 2006; 34: 1589) Outcome Cumulative effective antimicrobial therapy 100 Survival (%) Time (h) after hypotension HELLENIC SEPSIS STUDY GROUP ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΟ ΙΝΣΤΙΤΟΥΤΟ ΜΕΛΕΤΗΣ ΤΗΣ ΣΗΨΗΣ HELLENIC INSTITUTE FOR THE STUDY OF SEPSIS : 32 CENTERS : 3 CENTERS 29% OF TOTAL ICU BEDS : 2 CENTERS : 1 CENTER POLYMICROBIAL INFECTIONS: ER ADMISSION (Koupetori M, et al. BMC Infect Dis 2014; 14: 272) * *p< 0.05 between the two periods

BMC Infect Dis 2014; 14: 272) TAKE CARE IN NEUTROPENIA! (Dellinger RP, et al. Crit Care Med 2013; 41: 580) Cover empirically Pseudomonas aeruginosa + Acinetobacter baumannii + MRSA Recent exposure to hospital environment and/or antimicrobials? Resistance surveillance of the hospital (for hospitalacquired sepsis) The length of treatment should be 14 days.
