Sepsis Definition

Identifiable source of infection + SIRS

Severe sepsis Definition

Sepsis + organ dysfunction

Septic shock Definition

Sepsis + cardiovascular collapse " requiring vasopressor support"

Advantage of response

• Restore tissue function • Eradicate invading microorganisms

❖ Aim of recent practice

Our aim is to early intervention to support tissue and stop /minimize this response especially in major trauma or infection.

Minor injuries

: is usually followed by functional restoration w/minimal intervention

Major injurie

associated with overwhelming inflammatory response failure to give appropriate intervention multiple organ failure DEATH.

Percentage of those who are severely injured

30 %

Severely injured patients die from their injuries differ from survivors only in

the degree and duration of their dysregulated acute inflammatory response process

An incidence of Severely injured patients die from their injuries

of over 900,000 cases per year

Trauma is

: is the leading cause of mortality and Morbidity for individual under age 45

The understanding of the systemic response to surgical trauma will :

Enhance perioperative patient care • Enhance recovery • Decrease hospital stay

the aim of modern surgical practice is

to ensure stress_free pre_operative care

Response components :


• Physiological consequences • Metabolic manifestation • Clinical manifestations • Laboratory changes

Physiological consequences

⬆ cardiac output ⬆ ventilation ⬆ membrane transport ⬆ weight loss ⬆ wound healing

Metabolic manifestations

• Hypermetabolism


• Accelerated gluconeogenesis


• Enhanced protein breakdown


• Increased fat oxidation


❖ Response components


• Fever • Leucocytosis/leucopenia • Tachycardia • Hyperglycemia • Tachypnea • Elevated CRP/altered • Presence of wound or acute phase reactants inflammation • Hepatic/renal dysfunction • Anorexia

Mediators of injury response

• Neuro_endocrine (hormonal) • Immune system (cytokines)

❖ Bi phasic


1- Acute phase : an activity secreting pituitary and elevated counter regulatory hormones ( cortisol , glucagon , adrenaline ) changes are thought to be beneficial for short – term survival. 2- .Chronic phase : low serum levels of the respective target organ hormones. Changes contribute chronic wasting.

Chronic phase :

low serum levels of the respective target organ hormones. Changes contribute chronic wasting.

1- Acute phase :

an activity secreting pituitary and elevated counter regulatory hormones ( cortisol , glucagon , adrenaline ) changes are thought to be beneficial for short – term survival.

Phases of response

1. EBB 2. Flow 3. Anabolic

EBB

• Starts at the time of injury and lasts for approximately 24-48 hours • Main hormones in ebb phase are catecholamines, cortisol and aldosterone • It may be attenuated by proper resuscitation but not completely abolished

Flow


• It lasts for several weeks • This phase involves mobilization of body energy stores for repair and recovery

EBB ( untreated shock)



• Dec body temp • Dec O2 consumption • Lactic acidosis • Incr stress hormones • Decr insulin • Gluconeogenesis • Inc substrate consumption • Inc substrate consumption • Hepatic acute phase response • Immune activation

Flow phase


• Inc body temp • Inc O2 consumption • Negative Nitrogen bal • Inc stress hormone • Normal to Inc insulin • Hyperglycemia • Gluconeogenesis • Proteinolysis (Autocannabalism ) • Immunosuppression • Lipolysis

Key catabolic elements of flow phase

• Hyper metabolism • Alteration in skeletal muscle protein • Alteration in liver protein • Insulin resistance

1. Hyper metabolism


• Majority of trauma patients – energy expenditure approximately 15-25 %> predicted healthy resting values

Factors which increases this metabolism :


• central thermo dysregulation • increased sympathetic activity • increased protein turnover • wound circulation abnormalities

Skeletal muscle – metabolism

• Muscle wasting- result of ⬆ muscle protein degradation + ⬇ muscle protein synthesis ( RS and GIT ) cardiac muscle is spared • Lead – increased fatigue , reduced functional ability and ⬆ risk of morbidity mortality

Hepatic acute phase response:

Cytokines: 1. IL – 6 ⬅️ مهم 2. ⬆ Synthesis of positive acute phase 3. Protein : foreign and CRP • Negative acute reactants: Albumin decreased

Insulin resistance

• Hyperglycemia is seen - ⬆ glucose production + ⬇ glucose uptake – peripheral tissues • (Transient induction of insulin resistance seen ) • Degree of insulin resistance is to magnitude of the injuries process • Following routine upper abdominal surgery. Insulin resistance may persist for approximately 2 weeks

In critically ill patients with resuscitation 24 hours :

Body weight increases due to extracellular water expansion by 6-10 liters : This can be overcome By careful intraoperative management of fluid balance

In critically ill patients with resuscitation1-10 days:


Total body protein will diminish by 15% and body weight will reach negative balance as the expansion of extra cellular space resolves This can be overcome by blocking neuroendocrines

Factors ⬆ response to injury


* Factors were our aim to minimize or eradicate*

• Hypothermia • Pain • Starvation • Sepsis • Immobilization • Hypotension

Avoidable factors that compound the response of injury


• Contributing heamorrhage • Hypothermia • Tissue edema • Tissue under perfusion • Saturation • Immobility

Avoidable factors

Volume loss


Hypothermia


Administration of activated protein C


Maintaining the normo glycemia:


Starvation


Tissue edema


Immobility

Immobility :

has been recognized as a potent stimulus for inducing muscle wasting . Early mobilization is an essential measure to avoid muscle wasting

Tissue edema :

is mediated by the variety of mediators involved in the systemic inflammation . Careful administration of anti- mediators & reduce fluid overload during resuscitation reduces this condition

Starvation :

during starvation , the body is faced with an obligate need to generate glucose to insulin cerebral energy metabolism ( 100g of per day ) ▪ Provision of at least 2L of IV 5% dextrose for fasting patients provides glucose as above

Maintaining the normo glycemia:

with insulin infusion during critical illness has been proposed to protect the endothelium and thereby contribute to the prevention of organ failure and death

2. Hypothermia

maintaining normothermia by an upper body forced air heating cover ⬇Wound infection , cardiac complications , bleeding and transfusion requirements

1. Volume loss

careful limitation of intraoperative administration of colloids and crystalloid so that there is no weight gain

Administration of activated protein C -

to critically ill patients has been shown to ⬇organ failure and death . It is thought to act , in part , via preservation of the micro circulation in vital organs

App to prevent in necessary aspect of stress response

1. Minimal access technique 2. Minimal period 3.epidural analgesia 4. Early mobilization

Control of body response to surgery :

1. Control of pain : analgesic , local and regional blockade. 2. Less trauma : care in handing tissues , minimally invasive surgery . 3. Control of infection : remove source of toxins , debrdie wounds and drain pus , antibiotics 4. Nutritional support : enteral feeding to maintain gut mucosal barrier integrity and give immunonutrition with added glutamine , arginine and omega 3 FA 5. Remove fear and stress : give anxiolytics 6. Correct hypovolemia : adequate replacement of fluid and electrolyte lost , blood transfusion and Colloid for plasma losses . 7. Correct hypoxemia 8. Correct metabolic alkalosis or acidosis. 9. Drug administration: ( still experimental ) ▪ Steroids, antiedoxin , antibodies , anti- TNF , antibodies , IL – 1 receptor antagonists and PAF receptor antagonists , adrenergic blockers ( decrease metabolic rate )


• Aspirin ( attenuates cytokines actions) • GH and anabolic steroids stimulate protein synthesis . • Inderal ( improve postoperative nitrogen balance • Allopurinol ( inhibit free radical formation )
