■ corticosteroid replacement therapy not indicated if adequate hemodynamic stability achieved with
fluid resuscitation and vasopressor therapy
• infectioncontrol
■ prompt diagnosis of infection
◆ cultures as clinically indicated prior to antibiotic therapy if no significant delay ◆ imaging studies performed promptly to confirm possible infectious source
■ antibiotic therapy
• administereffectiveIVantimicrobialswithinfirsthourofrecognitionofsepsis
■ choice of anti-infective therapy should consider activity against all likely pathogens and penetrance of adequate concentration into tissue presumed to be source of infection
■ antimicrobial regimen should be reassessed daily for potential deescalation
