Abstract
Septic shock represents a profound systemic inflammatory derangement with components of functional hypovolemia, altered oxygen delivery, myocardial dysfunction, peripheral vasoplegia, and diffuse capillary leak. In this case scenario, a patient exhibits all of the aforementioned findings with lactic acidosis, elevated troponin, persistent hypotension despite vasopressor use, acute kidney injury, and acute lung injury due to septic shock. In addition to source control and early antibiotic administration, the goals of treatment are early and aggressive fluid resuscitation, maintenance of tissue perfusion, and judicious and balanced application of vasopressor support. As excess fluid balance is associated with worse outcomes, it is the job of the clinician to evaluate the patient’s response to fluid therapy with one of several tools. After adequate fluid resuscitation has been achieved, additional support may be required with vasopressors. As the patient’s clinical course improves the physician should aim to gently ‘de-resuscitate’ excess fluid.
