Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Septic shock is still considered a global health problem because it is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in critical patients. Various clinical studies have proven that intravenous administration of high dose ascorbic acid and corticosteroid helps slow the inflammation cascade. These studies help lower the global sepsis and septic shock burden with cost-effective methods and minimum side effects. We systematically reviewed the comparison between hydrocortisone and hydrocortisone-ascorbic acid-thiamine (HAT) combined therapy as an adjuvant in the mortality rate of septic sho

Background Septic shock remains a major cause of mortality and admission to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in children. Management includes adequate fluid resuscitation, followed by catecholamine infusion, if needed. Corticosteroid therapy is advised for catecholamine-refractory shock, although this practice is controversial, as it was not beneficial in other studies.

The incidence of sepsis and septic shock has been increasing dramatically over the past 10 years. Despite advances in antimicrobial therapy, the mortality of septic shock remains very high.

Management of septic shock is also discussed, including antimicrobial therapy, supportive care, and adjunctive treatment aimed at affecting the mediators involved in

Abstract:
Oliguria and acute kidney injury (AKI) are common in critically-ill patients with studies reporting AKI affecting more than 50% of critically-ill patients. AKI is independently associated with increased mortality and is a potentially modifiable aspect of critical illness. The pathogenesis of AKI is complex and varies according to aetiology. The most common trigger in ICU patients is sepsis—the pathophysiology of septic AKI is poorly understood and probably involves intrarenal haemodynamic and inflammatory processes. In the setting of septic AKI, the classic acute tubular necrosis described in

An increased blood lactate level (hyperlactataemia) is commonplace in critically-ill patients.

Understanding of the various anaerobic and aerobic mechanisms of production and clearance is essential for the correct interpretation of hyperlactataemia. Despite the broad differential diagnosis, hyperlactataemia generally predicts adverse outcomes. The consistency of its prognostic value emphasizes its place in the risk stratification of c
