Trends in "usual care" for septic shock.
The investigators examined changes in treatment patterns for septic shock in the emergency department (ED) of a large academic hospital. The investigators observed, from 2003 to 2013, significant reductions in time to antibiotics and fluids for patients with septic shock in the ED, underscoring the evolution of 鈥渦sual care鈥 over time. These findings may explain why early goal-directed therapy is not beneficial in the current era and may help inform ongoing deliberations regarding best practices for sepsis care.
