Practice guidelines are systematically developed statements and recommendations that assist the physicians and patients in making decisions about appropriate health care measures for specific clinical circumstances taking into account specific national health care structures. The 1st revision of the S-2k guideline of the German Sepsis Society in collaboration with 17 German medical scientific societies and one self-help group provides state-of-the-art information (results of controlled clinical trials and expert knowledge) on the effective and appropriate medical care (prevention, diagnosis, therapy and follow-up care) of critically ill patients with severe sepsis or septic shock. The guideline had been developed according to the "German Instrument for Methodological Guideline Appraisal" of the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies (AWMF). In view of the inevitable advancements in scientific knowledge and technical expertise, revisions, updates and amendments must be periodically initiated. The guideline recommendations may not be applied under all circumstances. It rests with the clinician to decide whether a certain recommendation should be adopted or not, taking into consideration the unique set of clinical facts presented in connection with each individual patient as well as the available resources. Leitlinien sind systematisch entwickelte Darstellungen und Empfehlungen mit dem Zweck, Ärzte und Patienten bei der Entscheidung über angemessene Maßnahmen der Krankenversorgung unter spezifischen medizinischen Umständen und unter Berücksichtigung des spezifischen nationalen Gesundheitssystems zu unterstützen. Die erste Revision der S-2k-Leitlinie der Deutschen Sepsis-Gesellschaft in Kooperation mit 17 weiteren wissenschaftlichen medizinischen Fachgesellschaften und einer Selbsthilfegruppe gibt den Stand des Wissens (Ergebnisse von kontrollierten klinischen Studien und Wissen von Experten) über effektive und angemessene Krankenversorgung zum Zeitpunkt der "Drucklegung" wieder. Die Leitlinienentwicklung erfolgte entsprechend des "Deutschen Instrumentes zur methodischen Leitlinien-Bewertung" der Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Wissenschaftlichen Medizinischen Fachgesellschaften (AWMF). In Anbetracht der unausbleiblichen Fortschritte wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse und der Technik müssen periodische Überarbeitungen, Erneuerungen und Korrekturen unternommen werden. Die Empfehlungen der Leitlinien können nicht unter allen Umständen angemessen genutzt werden. Die Entscheidung darüber, ob einer bestimmten Empfehlung gefolgt werden soll, muß vom Arzt unter Berücksichtigung der beim individuellen Patienten vorliegenden Gegebenheiten und der verfügbaren Ressourcen getroffen werden.
