56. Treating patients with severe sepsis

Author

Wheeler, Arthur P. and Bernard, Gordon R.

Subjects
Septicemia -- Physiological aspects, Critically ill -- Patient outcomes
Abstract

Mortality rates from sepsis are dropping even though no treatment has proven effective. Sepsis is a system-wide failure of organ function that is usually caused by an infection. Half a million patients in the US develop sepsis every year, and about half will die. Death is often due to organ failure. If organ failure can be prevented, so can deaths even though no treatment is available for sepsis. Basic supportive treatment includes enteral nutrition and the prevention of additional infections, stress ulcers and complications of bed rest. Many patients with sepsis may have other diseases that contribute to their death.

64. The effects of ibuprofen on the physiology and survival of patients with sepsis

Author

Bernard, Gordon R., Wheeler, Arthur P., Russell, James A., Schein, Roland, Summer, Warren R., Steinberg, Kenneth P., Fulkerson, William J., Wright, Patrick E., Christman, Brian W., Dupont, William D., Higgins, Stanley B., and Swindell, Bridget B.

Subjects
Septic shock -- Drug therapy, Ibuprofen -- Evaluation
Abstract

Ibuprofen does not appear to improve survival rates in people with sepsis although it does improve symptoms somewhat. Sepsis is a bacterial infection that spreads into the bloodstream and can cause organ failure. Researchers randomly assigned 455 patients with sepsis to receive intravenous ibuprofen or placebo. Ibuprofen reduced blood levels of inflammatory chemicals and reduced fever but it did not significantly reduce mortality rates. At 30 days, 37% of the ibuprofen group had died compared to 40% of the placebo group. Ibuprofen also did not reduce the incidence of shock or respiratory distress syndrome.
