We use >4 (arterial) for EGDT.

 For >2 we still do early cultures, early antibiotics, 20-30ml/kg fluids
over 1-2 hours,  glucose control (<180) only if they are in ICU, vent
plateau pressures <30.

Basically everything except those goals requiring a central line, since
they are not required to get one for this lactic acid value (>2 <4.1),
unless the SBP <90 or MAP <65 despite adequate fluid resuscitation.

Subject: [Sepsis Groups] Lactic acid result reporting.

Can anyone help me during my sepsis collaborative this year we are looking
to implement Lactic acid as one of the values if critical it is reported.
Has anyone established a critical result for lactic acid. We have in our
policy that the values greater than 2.2 are high. No critical has been
established. And does anyone have literature on this topic? Thanks .
