PulmCrit- Sepsis 4.0: Understanding sepsis-HLH overlap syndrome
Since the 1980s it has been recognized that some patients with sepsis also develop hemophagocytic lymphocytosis. For decades this was believed to be extremely rare. However, currently there is increasing recognition that this combination might represent a significant fraction of sepsis patients.
EMCrit 37 – Lactate in Sepsis
When an ED starts providing advanced care for severe sepsis, lactate testing is an absolute requirement. Lactate use brings up a lot of questions, especially if it is not commonly ordered in your department. In this podcast, I discuss all of the lactate questions that have come up in the course of the NYC Sepsis Collaborative.

Renal microvascular hemodynamics in sepsis: a new paradigm
Introduction 0 Traditionally it has been thought that during septic shock, renal blood flow decreases leading to pre-renal kidney injury. This implied that if we could improve the cardiac output and renal blood flow, the kidneys would recover. Recent research challenges these concepts, with interesting therapeutic implications. 0 New paradigm of microvascular physiology in renal acute kidney […]
Understanding lactate in sepsis & Using it to our advantage
Introduction with a case 0 Once upon a time a 60-year-old man was transferred from the oncology ward to the ICU for treatment of neutropenic septic shock. Over the course of the morning he started rigoring and dropped his blood pressure from 140/70 to 70/40 within a few hours, refractory to four liters of crystalloid. […]
Petition to retire the surviving sepsis campaign guidelines
We are disseminating an international petition that will allow clinicians to express their displeasure and concern over these guidelines. If you believe that our septic patients deserve more evidence-based guidelines, please stand with us.
PulmCrit- Coagulation balance in sepsis-associated DIC
An 80-year-old man was admitted with sepsis due to liver abscess. Over the first two hospital days his platelet count decreased from 122 to 39. Prophylactic heparin was held due to concerns about bleeding risk. Additional coagulation studies showed a D-dimer of 1221 ng/ml, a fibrinogen of 672 mg/dL, and the following thromboelastograph:
