A prevalence study of ICU infections conducted in 2007 involved 1,265 ICUs across 75 countries found that of patients considered to be infected, 70% had positive blood cultures— 62% with gram- negative organisms, 47% with gram- positive organ­isms, and 19% with fungi.49 Opportunistic fungal infec­tions are emerging as the most rapidly growing cohort due to a rise in the number of immunocompromised patients, with Candida species being the most common opportu­nistic mycotic species worldwide.50 Candida infections
also carry a crude mortality rate ranging from 46% to 75% as inclusion criteria for major clinical trials on sepsis47 (see Table 11.1).

e source of infection in a majority of sepsis cases is respiratory in origin (33%– 64%), followed by genitouri­nary (14%– 32%), gastrointestinal (20%– 23%), bone or joint (7%), and so tissue (5%).

PRESENTATION
Early identication and recognition of sepsis and septic shock is crucial in the implementation of goal- directed therapy and improved patient outcomes. Due to the mul­tiple etiologies of sepsis, clinical presentations can be vari­able and depend on the source of infection and pathogen involved. Based on the criteria put forth by the North American and European Consensus Committee in 2001, diagnosis of sepsis can be made by clinical parameters and laboratory values indicating infection and organ dysfunc­tion (see Box 11.1).
48
A hallmark of septic shock is the systemic immune response triggered by the invading pathogen, which causes a cascade of hormonal, proinammatory, and

anti- inammatory mediators that ultimately leads to altera­tions in cellular metabolism, tissue hypoperfusion, and organ dysfunction distant from the initial site of infection.
Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF- α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and IL- 1 are proinammatory cytokines that have been implicated in the SIRS response and pathogenesis of mul­tiorgan failure in septic shock.
55,56
Systemic infusions of TNF- α and IL- 1 have been shown to reproduce symp- toms of SIRS and septic shock in both human and animal models. Furthermore, high or persistently elevated serum levels of TNF- α, IL- 6, and IL- 1 were associated with sep- tic shock, the development of multiorgan failure, higher severity of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and higher mortality rates.
57– 62
Studies also suggest that TGF- β inhibits the inducible form of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), producing relatively high levels of nitric oxide (NO) during acute infection, which is postulated to be a mechanism of vasodilation and refractory hypotension in septic shock.
MECHANISM OFVASOPLEGIA

shock.
Under normal circumstances endogenous vasoconstric­tors such as angiotensin II and norepinephrine bind to receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and cause the release of intracellular calcium and inux through voltage- gated channels, resulting in depolarization of the VSMC membrane, activation of the actin- myosin com­plex, and vasoconstriction.

Renal Manifestations ofSepsis
More than 50% of patients with septic shock also have acute renal failure, which carries an increased mortality rate of 70% compared with 45% in patients with acute renal failure alone.79 Systemic arterial vasodilation in sepsis and septic shock causes activation of the renin- angiotensin­aldosterone system (RAA) and local down- regulation of iNOS that results in renal vasoconstriction and renal hypo­perfusion.79 ere is also direct tissue injury from inam­matory cytokines, reactive oxygen species, inltration of tissue by neutrophils and macrophages, and compromise of the microvasculature due to microthrombi.

channels causes inhibition of voltage- gated calcium chan­nels and vasodilation unresponsive to vasoconstrictors.71 During septic shock, various mediators including lactate, nitric oxide, and decreased ATP concentrations activate these potassium channels causing hyperpolarization of the membrane and vasoplegia.
71,73
Another mechanism of vascular hyporesponsiveness in septic shock is the depletion of circulating vasopres­sin. Refractory hypotension during circulatory shock, including septic shock, activates the arterial baroreex (see previous section), which leads to increased secretion of vasopressin, norepinephrine, and angiotensin II through autonomic regulation.74 Landry et al. demonstrated that patients with septic shock have markedly lower levels of plasma vasopressin compared to patients with cardiogenic shock despite ongoing hypotension due to a impaired baroreex- mediated secretion,75 and exogenous low dose infusions of vasopressin had norepinephrine sparing eects in severe septic shock.
76,77
Alarge, multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing the mortality benet of vaso­pressin infusions to norepinephrine infusions in patients with septic shock found no signicant dierence in 90- day mortality, however the mortality in patients with less severe shock was improved with the use of vasopressin.
78
Splanchnic Circulation and Liver Perfusion
Rates of liver failure and liver dysfunction in severe sepsis range from 35% to 46% and 3% to 6%, respectively.
81,82
Aside from the liver’s metabolic role, it is actively involved in the body’s innate immune response against pathogens. Asignicant component of the liver is myeloid and lym­phoid tissue housing the body’s largest reservoir of tissue­resident macrophages known as Kuper cells (KCs).83 e KCs are involved in the clearance and scavenging of endotoxin and bacteria from the portal circulation and are responsible for a large part of the host response to infection. In the setting of sepsis- induced liver dysfunction, there are alterations in metabolic function promoting gluconeogen­esis and glycogenolysis, transient increases in transaminase activity, and increased bilirubin levels due to intrahepatic cholestasis.
84,85
Pulmonary Manifestations ofSepsis
Sepsis is one of the most common etiologies of indirect acute lung injury (ALI) and ARDS, with incidences as high as 40%.86 Based on the American- European consen­sus conference on ARDS, ALI is distinguished from ARDS

89– 91
e pathogenesis of ALI is attrib­uted to loss of the alveolar- capillary barrier integrity due to endothelial and epithelial injury. Increased permeability causes an inux of protein- rich uid and inammatory cells into airspaces disrupting the normal alveolar infrastruc­ture and promoting the formation of hyaline membranes and brin deposition.92 Inammatory cytokines including TNF- α, IL- 1, IL- 6, and IL- 8 are found in the serum and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) uid of ARDS patients and are thought to be involved in the up- regulation of adhesion molecules promoting inux of erythrocytes and inam­matory cells into the alveolar space across the disrupted epithelial- endothelial barrier.

Patients with sepsis- induced cardiac dysfunction have a higher rate of mortality compared with those without, 70% versus 20%, respectively.

Parker et al. characterized hemodynamic variables among survivors and nonsurvivors of septic shock and found that initial mean cardiac indices and heart rate were elevated and systemic vascular resistance indices were reduced in both groups; however, survival was better if the heart rate was less than 95 beats per minute, and the SVRI was greater than 1529 dyne/ sec/ cm5 × M2.withing 24hours of initiating treatment.

Similar reversible changes were also seen in the right ventricle function of septic shock survivors.

Altered cognition is a common manifestation of sepsis and has been seen in up to 70% of bacteremic patients, with accompanying electroencephalographic (EEG) changes in more than 80% of those patients.
97,98
e presentation of sepsis- associated encephalopathy (SAE) can be variable and can range from mild confusion and delirium to coma. Several mechanisms have been described to contribute to the presentation of SAE, including altered cerebral micro­circulation due to decreased density of perfused microvas-
Derangements of coagulation are very common in sepsis and septic shock, with the most extreme manifestation being disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).

Tissue factor (TF) plays a central role in initiating the extrinsic coagulation pathway, resulting in brin deposition in tissue microvasculature that contributes to multiorgan dysfunc­tion in sepsis. Plasma levels of TF and TF expression are up- regulated in sepsis.

104,105
BIOMARKERS OFSEPSIS
e two main markers used clinically in sepsis are arterial lactate concentration and procalcitonin. e importance of measuring arterial lactate concentration in sepsis is discussed in the section “Evaluation of Perfusion.” Procalcitonin is a 116– amino acid peptide involved in calcium homeosta­sis and has been explored as a serum marker that is able to dierentiate sepsis from other noninfectious causes of

124
Currently recommendations do not include procalcitonin in diagnostic criteria for sepsis, though it may be a helpful marker in conjunction with other serum markers.
TREATMENT
e treatment of sepsis is outlined in the Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SCC) International Guidelines for Management of Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock. It centers
1. Protocolized, quantitative resuscitation of patients with
sepsis- induced tissue hypoperfusion (dened in this
document as hypotension persisting after initial uid
challenge or blood lactate concentration 4mmol/ L).
Goals during the rst 6 hours of resuscitation:
a) Central venous pressure 8– 12mmHg
b) Mean arterial pressure (MAP) ≥ 65mmHg
c) Urine output ≥ 0.5 mL/ kg/ hr
d) Central venous (superior vena cava) or mixed venous
oxygen saturation 70% or 65%, respectively (grade1C).

care bundles is associated with improved survival and more timely and appropriate antibiotic administration, though it cannot be determined whether this is due to an increased awareness of sepsis or due to specic recommendations within the bundle.
126,127
Early administration of antimicro­bials within the rst hour of documented hypotension in septic patients improves survival, and every hour of delay is associated with an increase in mortality.

outlined in Boxes 11.2 and11.3.
ere are caveats to these guidelines, as some of these recommendations are controversial and in contrast to well­established evidence. Current guidelines recommend an aggressive uid challenge of at least 30 mL/ kg of crystalloid to aim for the following targets:a CVP of 8– 12mmHg, a mean arterial pressure (MAP) 65 mmHg, urine output 0.5 mL/ kg/ hr, mixed venous oxygen saturation (MVO2) of 65% or superior vena cava oxygen saturation (ScVO2) of 70% and normalization of serum lactate. a guideline for adequate uid resuscitation is problematic,
125
Use of CVP as
as it correlates poorly with patient volume status (see sec­tion “Evaluation of Perfusion”). Additionally, ScVO2 is a controversial indicator of tissue perfusion, ScVO2 does not necessarily correlate with MVO2 and cardiac output, and in shock ScVO2 can be consistently higher than MVO2.
130,131
Overresuscitation is also problematic, and careful attention to uid overload is required, as higher positive uid balance
and CVPs were associated with increased mortality rates in patients with septic shock, ALI, and renal failure.
18,132,133
Despite the limitations, there are currently no good alternatives to the SCC guidelines. Studies in the last 15–20years of direct pharmacological interventions that aim to treat sepsis have been disappointing (steroids, acti­vated protein C, TNF- α, dichloracetate) and their routine use is discouraged. Newer adjunctive therapies that are not part of the SCC guidelines may warrant further extensive investigation and include the following.
Beta Blockade
Beta blockade is thought to exert various eects on immu­nologic, metabolic, and cardiac alterations in septic shock, though evidence of mortality benet from prospective trials is lacking. A retrospective study by Macchia et al. showed a lower 28- day mortality rate in septic patients pre­viously on chronic beta- blocker therapy, 17.7%, compared with those untreated, 22.1%.
134
Further randomized studies
are required before its routine use is to be recommended.
MethyleneBlue
Methylene blue is a chemical dye that inhibits iNOS and the eector enzyme of NO, guanylate cyclase, both important mediators of refractory vasodilation in sepsis. Small, ran­domized prospective clinical trials of methylene blue infu­sions in patients with septic shock demonstrated improved mean arterial blood pressure and reduced vasopressor

SPLANCHNIC VASODILATION
Vasoplegia and specically splanchnic vasodilation occurs resulting in a vasoplegic and maldistributive state. e degree of vasodilatory state correlates with the severity of liver fail­ure (Figure 11.2). Portal hypertension seen in cirrhosis is the result of not only increased intrahepatic resistance to portal blood ow but also splanchnic vasodilation and pooling of blood in the splanchnic circulation. Activation of the sympathetic and renin- angiotensin- aldosterone sys­tem will result in a compensatory peripheral vasoconstric­tion and cardiac hyperdynamic state similar to septic shock. e resultant renal arterial vasoconstriction will cause a decrease in glomerular ltration rate (GRF) with retention of uid and possibly hepatorenal syndrome (HRS).

Hepatorenal syndrome type 2 is dened as a slowly progressive deterioration of renal func­tion (increase of serum creatinine to more than 1.5 mg/ dL) despite diuretic withdrawal and uid administration in the absence of nephrotoxic insults. Usually, HRS type 2 is seen as a natural progression of hepatic cirrhosis and ascites and may be amenable to treatment with vasopressin or vasopres­sin analogues. Hepatorenal syndrome type 1 is dened as a rapidly progressive deterioration of renal function (dou­bling of serum creatinine within 2 weeks) usually in con­junction with acute on chronic liver failure. ere is oen a precipitating event such as surgery or infection that leads to a rapid collapse of renal and hepatic function. e average survival of patients with HRS type 1 is months compared with 6months in patients with HRS type2.

Low endog­enous vasopressin levels are likely due to depletion of pitu­itary vasopressin stores and may cause further deterioration of vasomotor tone. Cirrhotic patients with low endogenous vasopressin levels were exquisitely sensitive and responded with an increase of blood pressure when receiving low dose exogenous vasopressin. Exogenous vasopressin administra­tion results in decreases of portal venous pressure and ow, a consequence of splanchnic vasoconstriction, which is con­sidered benecial in cirrhosis. Vasopressin and vasopressin analogues such as ornipressin or terlipressin have been used to treat hepatorenal syndrome in conjunction with albu­min administration and diuretic withdrawal.

BOX 11.4 CLINICAL CRITERIA FORDIAGNOSING
ANAPHYLAXIS
Anaphylaxis is highly likely when any one of the following
three criteria are fullled:
1. Acute onset of an illness (minutes to several hours)
with involvement of the skin, mucosal tissue, or both
(e.g., generalized hives, pruritus or ushing, swollen lips-
tongue- uvula) and at least one of the following:
a. Respiratory compromise (e.g., dyspnea, wheeze-
bronchospasm, stridor, reduced PEF, hypoxemia)
b. Reduced BP or associated symptoms of end- organ
dysfunction (e.g., hypotonia [collapse], syncope, incontinence)
2. Two or more of the following that occur rapidly after
exposure to a likely allergen for that patient (minutes to
several hours):
a. Involvement of the skin- mucosal tissue (e.g.,
generalized hives, itch- ush, swollen lips- tongue- uvula)
sion syndrome but have not been tested in well- done trials.
b. Respiratory compromise (e.g., dyspnea, wheeze-
bronchospasm, stridor, reduced PEF, hypoxemia)
ANAPHYLAXIS
Anaphylaxis is an acute immunological reaction that causes release of mediators from mast cells resulting in profound vasodilation. While rare, anaphylactic shock can be fatal in about 1% of cases
185
by causing profound multiorgan failure.In the United States, anaphylaxis causes about 0.5 deathsper million.
186
Most commonly, anaphylaxis is dened as an immunoglobulin E (IgE)– mediated reaction, however nonimmunological responses can cause a massive release of mediators by mast cells and basophils as well. Classically,
c. Reduced BP or associated symptoms (eg., hypotonia
[collapse], syncope, incontinence)
d. Persistent gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g., crampy
abdominal pain, vomiting)
3. Reduced BP after exposure to known allergen for that
patient (minutes to several hours):
a. Infants and children:low systolic BP (age specic) or
greater than 30% decrease in systolicBP*
b. Adults:systolic BP of less than 90mmHg or greater
than 30% decrease from that person’s baseline
anaphylaxis occurs when antigens interact with specic IgE that is bound to mast cells and basophils. Previous exposure to the antigen is necessary to form specic IgE receptors that are bound to either mast cells or basophils. Repeated con­tact of the antigen with IgE can lead to degranulation of the cells mediated by high- anity IgE receptors (FcεRI, or Fc epsilon RI). A massive release of histamine, proteoglycans,
PEF, peak expiratory ow; BP, blood pressure.
*Low systolic blood pressure for children is dened as less than 70mmHg from 1month to 1year, less than (70mmHg + [2 x age]) from 1 to 10years, and less than 90mmHg from 11 to 17years.

serotonin, and serine proteases will lead to the clinical pic­ture of anaphylaxis. Systemic release of histamine will cause profound vasodilation and ushing mediated by H1 recep­tors and tachycardia, pruritis, and bronchospasm mediated by H2 receptors.
187
On average, anaphylaxis occurs about 5 to 30 minutes aer exposure to the antigen. e diagnosis is clinical and can be based on the criteria dened by the SECOND symposium on the denition and management of anaphylaxis
188
(Box 11.4).
First response should be removal of the suspected allergen, followed by administration of epinephrine either intramuscularly or intravenously (in much lower doses) if intravenous access is immediately available. Epinephrine is the ideal rst- line agent, because the alpha- 1 agonistic action will counteract the vasodilatory state and shock,

beta- 1 agonistic action will augment cardiac output, and beta- 2 agonism will treat bronchoconstriction. Delay in administering epinephrine has been recognized as con­tributing to the risk of death in anaphylactic shock.
189
patients who chronically take beta- blocking agents, epi­nephrine may cause hypotension. Glucagon can be given to these patients to maintain vascular tone and cardiac output independent of the sympathetic- adrenergic system.
190
In case of severe respiratory symptoms (stridor or respiratory arrest) the patient should be tracheally intu­bated without delay, as increasing upper airway edema may impede an easy intubation at a later time. Generous intrave­nous uid administration will aid in maintaining adequate blood pressure and perfusion.
Antihistamines such as diphenhydramine can be administered, but this should not delay administration of epinephrine. ese may relieve hives and itching but do not treat the life- threatening symptoms of anaphylaxis. Glucocorticoids should be administered as an adjunct to epinephrine, but it will take hours before their onset. ere has been a lack of evidence that glucocorticoids aect out­come in anaphylactic shock, and they should not replace or delay the administration of epinephrine.
192
Concomitant with the treatment, a blood sample should be obtained to determine serum tryptase levels and conrm the diagnosis of anaphylaxis. Tryptase is released from mast cells during anaphylaxis and has a longer plasma half- life (approximately 2 hours
193
) than histamine (approximately
10 minutes).

receive glucocorticoid replacement if the mineralocorticoid requirements are not met.
195
Patients present with shock, fever, nausea and vomiting, and acute abdominal pain. Because infection and trauma can be precipitating factors and the symptoms are nonspecic and oen similar to those seen with septic shock, patients with Addisonian crisis are oen misdiagnosed. e delay in diagnosing Addisonian crisis signicantly contributes to the mortality in patients with adrenal insuciency.
Specic ndings on physical exam (for example hyper­pigmented skin due to chronic adrenocorticotropic hor­mone [ACTH] hypersecretion) may hint at the presence of decompensated chronic primary adrenal insuciency. Secondary adrenal insuciency (a rare cause of Addisonian
191
crisis) will however cause pale skin due to low levels of ACTH. Treatment should not be delayed until specic laboratory tests such as serum cortisol levels and ACTH stimulation test are completed, especially if the patient is hemodynamically unstable. If Addisonian crisis is sus­pected, treatment should consist of 100 mg intravenous hydrocortisone, followed by 400– 500 mg during the rst 24 hours, in addition to supportive therapy (aggressive uid administration, electrolyte and glucose control, and other critical care interventions).
197
In patients without a diagnosis of primary adrenal insuciency 4 mg of intra­venous dexamethasone can be given, because it does not interfere with the serum cortisol assay.
198
If diagnosed and treated rapidly, the prognosis of Addisonian crisis is good but also depends on the precipitating trigger. Most stud­ies found that patients with chronic adrenal insuciency can have a normal quality of life and life expectancy, if they
196
receive adequate hormonal replacement. However a recent

of (frequently undiagnosed) primary adrenal insuciency. Other less frequent causes of Addisonian crisis are bilateral adrenal infarction or patients with primary or secondary adrenal insuciency who abruptly withdraw from ste­roids (Figure 11.3). Commonly, stress, acute infections, or trauma may cause an exacerbation of adrenal insuciency, resulting in complete failure of the glands to produce adre­nal mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, androgens, and catecholamines. Acute Addisonian crisis is rare, but almost 50% of patients with primary adrenal insuciency report
