# 內科值班04
## Sepsis 敗血症
### 定義：**感染** + **Organ Dysfunction** **(SOFA≥2)**, not SIRS now
重點：內科急症，如果懷疑，盡早使用廣效抗生素
前言：當一個病人(1)發燒 或(2)有既存感染+臨床(vital signs, UOP, GCS)有變化，都要評估有無sepsis的可能性
### **懷疑sepsis先算qSOFA (≥兩項):**
1. 意識 GCS<15
2. 血壓 SBP≤100
3. 呼吸 RR≥22
### **如果qSOFA≥兩項，進入Hour-1 Bundle流程**
**1. 抽血:**
* CBC/DC, BCS, ABG(?), **Lactate, 兩套B/C**, U/A, U/C, S/C, CXR
**2. 廣效抗生素(一小時內給，依腎功能調整劑量):**
* 本院首選tazocin，已經在用的話升階meropenem
* 懷疑MRSA感染再加Vancomycin or teicoplanin (腎功能差選teico，前三天都不用腎調)
* 感染科會診單可暫存，先把醫囑開出去，病歷後面再慢慢打
**3. 點滴(血壓掉 或 lactate>4):**
* 先給N/S 500ml (病房有可以直接給)，再給L/R (優於N/S)
* 總量30ml/kg in 3hr，但如果給到要喘起來還是問一下二線比較好 (eg. 年紀大或有HF)
* Vital signs不穩的話要放Foley，記I/O，Hold 血壓藥
**4. 醫囑(抽血、抗生素、點滴)先開完，接下來好好survey，找infection focus**
* Hx (Underlying dz, Associated s/s) + PE (from head to toe) + Lab (eg. 之前的Culture, CXR)
* Sourse control (跟二線或原主治討論), eg. 切CT排除IAI, APN+水腎放 PCN, calculous cholecystitis 做 ERCP, abscess 做 aspiration 或 drainage...
**5. 升壓劑 (1st line: levophed)**: **通知二線，狀況不穩定且需要下ICU**
* 使用時機: 輸液無法維持MAP≥65 (CRT>2s, UOP<0.5ml/kg/hr, AMS 也要懷疑shock)
* 確認DNR status，有沒有拒升壓藥
```

CXR (PA+LAT)
Sputum culture (Gram stain & Aerobic, Legionella/S. Pneumo urine Ag, ±AFB ± Mycobact.)
* **考慮:**
COVID PCR, Influenza Ag
Pneumonia panel? (high risk of aspiration, refractory to tx?)
Chest CT (懷疑細菌性肺炎以外的診斷, eg. fungal/viral/chemical/PE/CHF/ARDS/DAH/ILD, 懷疑ILD要做HRCT)
BAL (懷疑VAP或Atypical pneumonia)
PCT (<0.25可停abx, 免疫不全跟CKD不適用, 偽陽: CPR, shock, burns, surgery)
**Severity (qSOFA, CURB65, PSI)**
* CURB-65: confusion, BUN>20, RR>30, BP<90/60, Age>65 (>2: admit, >3: ICU)
* PSI(按計算機): age, sex, 住機構, 共病, vital signs, AMS, lab (pH, BUN, Na, Glu, Hct, PaO2, pleural effusion)
**Management**
* Sepsis → Early Abx ; Cover pathogen accordingly
* **CAP (5-7d) → IV Augmentin + 3d of Oral Azithromycin** ± Vanco if MRSA carrier
(Tazocin + azithromycin if recent Hx of PsA肺炎, 住院, iv abx)
* **HAP (7d) → Tazocin + 3d of Azithromycin** ± Vanco if MRSA carrier
