Gasping for Air: Albuterol-Induced Lactic Acidosis Pyruvate + NADH + H+ ↔ lactate + NAD+. Lactic acidosis is a commonly encountered phenomenon within the emergency department (ED). In the setting of sepsis, elevated lactate levels can be an indicator of hypoxia or decreased perfusion. Its clearance can be a sign of increased perfusion.

Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Criteria in Defining Severe Sepsis Background. The consensus definition of severe sepsis requires suspected or proven infection, organ failure, and signs that meet two or more criteria for the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). We aimed to test the sensitivity, face validity, and construct validity of this approach.

Sepsis Sepsis (/ˈsɛpsɨs/) is a whole-body inflammatory response to an infection. Common signs and symptoms include fever, increased heart rate, increased breathing rate, and confusion.isease severity partly determines the outcome with the risk of death from sepsis being as high as 30%, severe sepsis as high as 50%, and septic shock as high as 80%. The total number of cases worldwide is unknown as there is little data from the developing world.

- Early-onset neonatal sepsis usually results from organisms acquired intrapartum. Most infants have symptoms within 6 h of birth. Group B streptococcus (GBS) and gram-negative enteric organisms (predominantly Escherichia coli) account for most cases of early-onset sepsis. Vaginal or rectal cultures of women at term may show group B streptococcus colonization rates of up to 35%. At least 35% of their infants also become colonized.
