Deep dives
Fluid management in sepsis
The paper discusses the debate between liberal and restricted fluid strategies in the management of sepsis. A study called CLOVERS examined the effect of a restrictive fluid strategy in sepsis patients, comparing it with standard care. The study enrolled over 1500 patients and found no difference in 90-day mortality. However, the paper highlights the need to consider a restricted fluid strategy from an earlier perspective, particularly in the pre-hospital and emergency department settings.
