New insight into fluid bolus resuscitation in pediatric severe sepsis and septic shock / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Early recognition and treatment of pediatric septic shock is key strategy to improve prognosis and reduce the mortality,yet controversy still surrounds the current fluid therapy approach.Recently,the results of the Fluid Expansion as Supportive Therapy (FEAST) trial in African children with severe febrile and hypoperfusion illnesses challenge many established principles about pediatric fluid resuscitation,and lead to intense discussion.This review is to describe the current fluid supportive therapy and possible potential mechanisms of increased death associated with bolus resuscitation.
