Trial of the Week: SEPSISPAM

Special Guest: Katherine Spezzano, PharmD, MBA, BCCCP @KatSpazPharmD

 

Katherine Spezzano joins to discuss the April Trial of the Week “High versus Low Blood-Pressure Target in Patients with Septic Shock” the SEPSISPAM study, published in NEJM in 2014.

We set the scene by reviewing the concept of autoregulation, guideline recommendations, and pre-SEPSISPAM research assessing BP goals in sepsis. Then we do a deep dive into the SEPSISPAM trial of the week. Would we see these same results with other vasopressors? Did each group meet their BP goal range? How do we balance AKI prevention and longer ICU LOS? What do our guidelines recommend now? Trial fun facts, alternate trial acronym ideas, and much more!
