  2. Outline • Recognition and Impact • Grades of recommendations • Non-antimicrobial management • Antimicrobial management • Infection Prevention • Antibiotic Stewardship

  3. Recognizing Sepsis

  4. Terminology • Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) • Temp > 38 or < 36 • HR > 90 • RR > 20 or PaCO2 < 32 • WBC > 12 or < 4 or Bands > 10% • Sepsis • The systemic inflammatory response to infection. • Severe Sepsis • Organ dysfunction secondary to Sepsis. • e.g. hypoperfusion, hypotension, acute lung injury, encephalopathy, acute kidney injury, coagulopathy. • Septic Shock • Hypotension secondary to Sepsis that is resistant to adequate fluid administration and associated with hypoperfusion.

  16. Microbiology and Antibiotic Primer 101 • Three classes of major bacterial pathogens that need to be considered in septic patients • Gram Positive Cocci • Gram Negative Rods • Strict Anaerobes

  17. Gram Positive Cocci • Staphylococcus aureus • 50% are MRSA • Beta hemolytic streptococci • Always penicillin susceptible • Viridans streptococci • Usually penicillin or ceftriaxone susceptible • Enterococcus species • E faecium is always penicillin resistant, often vancomycin resistant

  18. Facultative Gram Negative Rods (Enterobacteraciae) • Most common pathogens are E coli and Klebsiella • Increasing resistance includes ESBL, Kpc • SPICE Organisms (Serratia, Indole Positive Proteus, Citrobacter, Enterobacter) • Possess Amp C resistance genes which can be induced or selected

  19. Strictly Aerobic Gram Negatives • Pseudomonas aeruginosa • Inherently resistant to many classes of drugs • Possess Amp C genes (also SPICE organism), many other beta lactamases, efflux pumps and altered porin channels • Can become even more resistant • Even to carbapenemases! • Acinetobacter species • Inherently MDR • Can become totally resistant, even to colistin!

  20. Strict Anaerobes • Most common pathogens are Bacteroides fragilis and fusobacterium species • Produce beta lactamases • Resistant to penicillins and older cephalosporins • Susceptible to BL/BLI, cefoxitin, carbapenems, metronidazole, clindamycin

  21. Classes of Antibiotics to Use Initially in Sepsis • Beta Lactams* • Broad Spectrum Penicillins = piperacillin/tazobactam • 3 or 4th Generation Cephalosporins • Non anti-pseudomonal = ceftriaxone or cefotaxime • Anti-pseudomonal = ceftazidime or cefepime • Carbapenems • Non anti-pseudomonal = ertapenem • Anti-pseudomonal = meropenem • Monobactams = aztreonam • Only for “beta lactam” allergic • No gram positive or anaerobic activity • Anti-pseudomonas activity comparable to ceftazidime * Avoid combinations of beta lactams

  22. Aminoglycosides • Gentamicin/tobramycin (7 mg/kg/day) • Cover most enterobacteraciae and pseudomonas • Not as resistant to aminoglycoside modifying enzymes • Amikacin (20 mg/kg/day) • More resistant to aminoglycoside modifying enzymes • Should be the “Go To AG” • Once MIC’s available, can de-escalate to other class (BL, FQ) • Rarely need more than 1-2 days of AG • Nephro/oto-toxicity are unlikely

  23. Vancomycin • Only active against GPC • Slowly bactericidal • Pharmacodynamic parameter = AUC/MIC • Goal of >=400 • Need loading dose for serious infections: 25 mg/kg AW • Trough >15 achieves AUC/MIC of >400 when MIC <2 • For OSSA, less effective than beta lactams

  24. What is Missing? • Fluoroquinolones • Only empiric indication in sepsis would be as part of combination therapy for severe CAP • Not empirically for UTI, intra-abdominal or SSTI • Why not? • 25-30+% of E coli in ICU are resistant! • 35% of Pseudomonas in ICU are resistant

  25. When to Cover for MRSA • Severe purulent SSTI • Necrotizing pneumonia/empyema • Central line associated • (Known MRSA carriers?) • Go To Drug = Vancomycin

  26. When to Cover for Pseudomonas • Severe COBPD/bronchiectasis • Frequent ABX • Steroid dependent • Known airway colonization • Neutropenic septic leukemic • (Burn patients)

  27. Combination Rx for Pseudomonas?(Andrew Faust, PharmD) • Only indicated to ensure coverage until MICs are available • Does not prevent resistance from developing • Synergy is not clinically relevant • What combinations are optimal in ICU isolates 2012?

  28. Sepsis is “always” a secondary diagnosis: where is it coming from?

  29. Septic Patients are not Immune to Hospital Acquired Infections! • “Bundles” • Guidelines • Recent literature

  30. Prevent CLABSI

  31. Prevent Ventilator Adverse Events

  32. Prevent CAUTI

  33. Sepsis Guidelines 2013

  34. Antibiotic Stewardship • Get appropriate cultures before starting ABX • Pick empiric therapy based on likely source and organism(s) • Once meaningful cultures are available, use susceptibilities to de-escalate therapy • Limit duration of therapy to evidence based recommendations when possible
