HOT TOPIC RESULTS ~ EGDT FOR SEPSIS CARE IN ZAMBIA

(icTV) Interview with Todd Rice

Does protocolised resuscitation with intravenous fluids, vasopressors, and blood transfusion implemented early after presentation to the emergency department improve in-hospital mortality among African adults with sepsis and hypotension compared with usual care?

Todd Rice (Nashville, United States) describes the clinical impact of the results of this randomised clinical trial which aimed to answer this question in this icTV interview.

The full results were presented for the first time at ESICM’s annual congress LIVES 2017 in Vienna.

This presentation at the Hot Topics session at LIVES 2017 will be available on e-LIVES.
