38th Critical Care Congress: Monotherapy Vs Combination Antimicrobial Therapy of Sepsis
During this session, the controversial debate on whether or not combination antimicrobial therapy is more efficacious than monotherapy for gram-negative bacteremia is presented. Although there are theoretical advantages to combination therapy, the data from studies of patients with gram-negative bacteraemias have been conflicting.
- Dennis G. Maki, MD, examines the evidence that modern monotherpy is sufficient
- Anand Kumar, MD, FCCM, examines the evidence that combination therapy yields improved outcomes
37th Critical Care Congress: The Cutting Edge of Sepsis Therapies
- Daniel Meldrum, MD, examines when and why to use beta-blockers in septic shock
- Sara S. Cheng, MD, presents on the use of anticoagulants in sepsis
- Jeffery S. Vender, MD, FCCM, discusses hemodynamic monitoring in sepsis
- Claudio Ronco, MD, assesses the role of hemofiltration in sepsis
- Jean-Louis Vincent, MD, PhD, FCCM, presents an evidenced-based approach to sepsis
37th Critical Care Congress: Selected Controversies in Sepsis Therapy in the PICU
- Jerry J. Zimmerman, MD, PhD FCCM, evaluates the role of steroid use in pediatric sepsis
- Vinay M. Nadkarni, MD, FCCM, discusses the approach to tight glycemic control in critically ill children
- Mark R. Rigby, MD, PhD, reviews the mechanisms and effects of tight glycemic control in children
- Joseph A. Carcillo, MD, describes the application of goal-directed therapy to pediatric septic shock
- Elizabeth A. Farrington, PharmD, reviews current information on the use of vasopressin in pediatric septic shock
37th Critical Care Congress: Hemodynamic Support of Sepsis
- Judith Jacobi, PharmD, FCCM, reviews the rationale for using various fluid products during the resuscitation of the septic patient, including the use of crystalloids versus colloids versus blood products
- Emanuel Rivers, MD, MPH, further explains early goal-directed therapy interventions for the patient with sepsis and how early treatment can reduce mortality
- Jean-Louis Vincent, MD, PhD, FCCM, discusses the results from clinical trials assessing the adequacy of resuscitation in the septic patient
- James Russell, MD, compares the rationales for vasopressin and norepinephrine in septic shock
The Pharmacologic Horizon of Sepsis Therapy (available in print)
While there are several antisepsis drugs in the pipeline, the soonest the healthcare community can expect a new product is 2009. Discover which drugs are in development and what practitioners can concentrate on in the meantime. Critical Connections, August 2006
