1 Early Antibiotics for Sepsis and Septic Shock: A Gold Standard Anand Kumar MD, FRCPC, FCCP, FCCM Professor of Medicine University of Manitoba Health Sciences Centre St. Boniface Hospital Winnipeg, Manitoba For available slides: search anand kumar medicine manitoba akumar61@yahoo.com `

2 Surviving Sepsis Bundle 2012 Severe Sepsis 3-Hour Resuscitation Bundle administer broad spectrum antimicrobials (1 hr) lactate level blood cultures prior to administration of antimicrobials 30 ml/kg crystalloid for hypotension or lactate 4 mmol/l

3 The Gold Standard for Evidence in Medical Science RCT? Generalizability Reproducibility! Glycemic control Physiologic corticosteroid therapy Activated protein C (drotrecogin-alfa) Goal-directed resuscitation 3

4 The Gold Standard for Evidence in Biological Science Biologic rationale a reasonable hypothesis Reproducibility across a wide range of study designs including observational studies; in the case of early antimicrobials Experimental animal studies Direct observational human data Indirect but related observational data Bundle analysis 4

5 Speed is Life The speed of clearance of the microbial pathogen is the critical determinant of outcome in septic shock (and other conditions where there is a timedependent risk of irreversible and irreplaceable organ failure) 5
