IS LESS REALLY MORE? FLUID RESUSCITATION AND CLINICAL OUTCOMES IN SEPSIS PATIENTS WITH AND WITHOUT CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE (CHF)
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Sepsis is a common and life-threatening complication of infection that disproportionately affects patients with chronic comorbidities. Timely fluid resuscitation is a key initial management strategy for reducing sepsis mortality; however, patients with serious comorbidities are often excluded from clinical trials. The Surviving Sepsis guidelines suggest that patients meeting severe sepsis criteria should be administered […]

THE EFFECT OF FLUID STATUS ON OUTCOMES IN SEPSIS: THE EF SOS STUDY.
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Sepsis is a leading cause of hospital death and readmission (1-2). Prior work has suggested that early, adequate intravenous fluid (IVF) administration during sepsis care is associated with lower mortality, even among those at risk for fluid overload (including patients with chronic kidney disease [CKD] or heart failure [HF]) (3). At the same time, […]
