Early Warning Scores for Sepsis Identification

(2)OBJECTIVES
• To understand and be able to identify the
differences between Sepsis and Shock
• To appreciate the role of SIRS in identifying
patients at risk
• To understand the morbidity and mortality of Sepsis
in relation to length of stay, current guidelines, cost to health care systems
• To understand modalities of treatment which

• Sepsis (with organ dysfunction) – now defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a
dysregulated host response to infection This is a clinical diagnosis.
o Identify with modified SIRS and Change in LOC
• Septic Shock – a subset of Sepsis with circulatory and cellular/metabolic dysfunction associated with a higher risk of mortality This is a clinical diagnosis.

Suggested Clinical Criteria for Sepsis (if in ICU?)
Infection + or more SOFA points (above baseline)
Consider Sepsis outside ICU if
(9)QUICK SOFA / QSOFA
> 22/ min SBP
≤100mmHg
In patients with infection a qSOFA score > is associated with higher
mortality and prolonged ICU stay

• Inadequate oxygen delivery to meet metabolic

• Results in global tissue hypoperfusion and
metabolic acidosis
• Most important, evidence of hypoperfusion: All

o hypotension
o Lactic acid
o Base deficit
o SvO2 or ScV02
o pH

(25)COMPENSATORY RESPONSE IN SHOCK
• Inadequate systemic oxygen delivery
activates autonomic responses to maintain systemic oxygen delivery
• Sympathetic nervous system
• NE, epinephrine, dopamine, and cortisol release
• Causes vasoconstriction, increase in HR, and increase of cardiac contractility (cardiac output)
• Renin-angiotensin axis
• Water and sodium conservation and vasoconstriction • Increase in blood volume and blood pressure

(28)TAKE HOME POINTS
• Suspect Sepsis Early
• Quantify patients at risk with MEWS
• Make it automatic
• Re-Evaluate Patients Promptly
• Treat as a team event and if determine
patient is septic treat as a “code sepsis”
• Apply antibiotics as STAT drugs
• Use your clinical judgment as you fluid
