1) Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response to infection that can lead to organ dysfunction. It ranges from sepsis to severe sepsis with organ dysfunction to septic shock with hypotension.
2) Early goal directed therapy aims to optimize oxygen delivery through fluid resuscitation, vasopressors if needed, and blood transfusion to maintain certain goals such as a central venous pressure of 8-12 mmHg and central venous oxygen saturation above 70% within 6 hours.
3) Early goal directed therapy within 6 hours that includes early antibiotics, fluid resuscitation, and maintaining blood pressure and oxygen delivery goals can significantly reduce mortality from sepsis.
2. Wat is sepsis?
• Sepsis is een heftige immuunrespons op
bacterien / toxinen in de bloedbaan.
• Gekenmerkt door een systemische
inflammatoire respons, SIRS.
• Bij infecties in het bloed, urine, longen, hart, etc.
• SIRS ook bij operatie en trauma
• Continuum van SIRS – septische shock
3. Wat gebeurt er bij sepsis?
• Sepsis bij circa 2% van de SEH patiënten
• Mortaliteit:
– 33% bij ernstige sepsis
– 59% bij septische shock
4. Systemic Inflammatory Response

Twee of meer criteria:
• Temperatuur >38˚C of <36˚C
• Hartslag >90/min
• Ademhalingsfrequentie > 20/min
• Leuko’s > 12 of < 4

•
•
•
•
•
•
Verhoogde infectieparameters
Verhoogd lactaatgehalte
Verlaagde veneuze zuurstofsaturatie
Verlaagde bloeddruk
Verlaagde urineproductie

•Secure adequate funding

18. Early Goal Directed Therapy
• Early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) is a
haemodynamic optimization protocol that is
proven to reduce mortality in cases of severe
sepsis/septic shock.
• Early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) was
proposed by Rivers et al in 2001. This protocol
advocates aggressive treatment commencing
in the emergency department to achieve certain
haemodynamic goals.
• This achieved a 16% absolute risk reduction
for in-hospital mortality.
Rivers E, Nguyen B, Havstad S, Ressler J, Muzzin A, Knoblich B, et al. Early goal directed therapy in the
treatment of severe sepsis and septic shock. N Engl J Med 2001;345:1368-77.
19. What’s the theory behind Early Goal
Directed Therapy?
In sepsis, circulatory insufficiency (intravascular volume
depletion, peripheral vasodilatation and myocardial
depression), combined with an increased metabolic state could
lead to an imbalance between oxygen demand and delivery,
resulting in anaerobic metabolism and the potential
development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.
20. Initial Resuscitation
Goals during first 6 hours:
•
•
•
•
Central venous pressure: 8–12 mm Hg
Mean arterial pressure 65 mm Hg (≈95/50)
Urine output 0.5 mL kg-1/hr-1 (≈40ml)
Central venous (superior vena cava) [SvO2]
saturation 70%
Grade B
21. Components of EGDT
• Fluid resuscitation and CVP monitoring
• MAP maintenance and vasopressors
• ScvO2 monitoring and blood transfusion
+ Intravenous antibiotics administration early
22. Fluid resuscitation and CVP
Monitoring
• Patients are usually fluid depleted – absolute
vs relative
• Fluid resuscitation can help to reduce the
global tissue hypoxia, by increasing the
cardiac output and improving oxygen
delivery to the tissues
• Continued fluid challenges of 500 ml

From time of presentation, broad spectrum antibiotics must be

In the event that hypotension and/or serum lactate >4mmol
a) Deliver initial minimum of 20ml/kg of crystalloid or
colloid equivalent.
b) Apply vasopressors for hypotension not responding to
initial fluid resuscitation to maintain a MAP of ≥65mmHg.
Consider insertion of urinary catheter (measure UOP)
If hypotension persists and serum lactate >4mmol despite fluid

29. Antibiotics Administration
– Administration of an antimicrobial effective for isolated or suspected
pathogens within the first hour of documented hypotension was associated
with a survival rate of 79.9%
– Each hour of delay in antimicrobial administration over the ensuing 6 hrs
was associated with an average decrease in survival of 7.6%.(12)

31. Conclusion
• Sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock are a
serious cause of morbidity and mortality
• Early recognition of sepsis and activation of
EGDT is crucial to improve the outcome
• Airway maintenance, broad spectrum
antibiotics, fluid resuscitation and blood
pressure maintenance are the components of
EGDT that should be carried out for better
survival chance of the patients.
