The current standard of care is to provide a bolus of 30 mL per kg of isotonic fluid for patients with septic shock. Recent retrospective studies question this practice. Join host, Geoff Wall, as he reviewed a NEJM article on the role of fluids in septic shock.
The GameChanger
Large boluses of fluid during septic shock may have unintended adverse events. Some data show that an approach with restrictive fluids may have no difference in death or adverse outcomes.
The COVID-19 pandemic is still ‘a thing’ and the best source of protection are vaccines. The new bivalent booster vaccine provides opportunities to protect ourselves and our communities.
