Sepsis
Manage episode 364803607 series 2974698
With sepsis, or septicemia, it can get real complicated, real fast. But we’re gonna try to just keep it simple today and talk about what you really need to know as nursing students.
Sepsis is when the body has an extreme response to an infection. The body tries so hard to fight off the infection, that it can even damage the patient’s own tissues and organs. Sepsis usually starts with a bacterial infection, but we also see it caused by fungal, viral, or even parasitic infections.
Acronyms used in this episode:
TIME: Temperature, Infection, Mental decline, and Extremely ill
HATTT: Hypotension, Altered Mental State, Tachycardia, Tachypnea, and Temperature
CALL IT: Cultures, Antibiotics, Lactate, Lactate, IV Fluids, and Tissue perfusion
