If your patient has a metabolic acidosis with hyperclhoremia will you still be 
using normal saline?...because that's one of the circumstances that could 
present to you when using high volumes of this solution , in the case discuss 
above when the use of inotropics is very close,  it should be reasonable to use 
a low chlorine solution nevertheless the recomendation of the guidelines is to 
use cristaloids (either saline or ringer) but in order to diminish the chances 
of a hyperchloremic state  the use of ringer looks feasible.

We use normal saline which is recommended by the guidelines.

Yes those are part of the 4 principal goals in surviving sepsis campain. We 
Also use the arterial line waves forms ior the plestitmographic waves for fluid 
Administracion or to use pressors

Our facility continues to bolus an additional 3-5 liters if the lactate comes 
back ≥ 4. If after that and we have a CVP that is still < 8, we would continue 
to bolus. Thanks.   Mary Draper RN BSN CCRNQuality Manager-Best Practice

Subject: [Sepsis Groups] use of vasopressors New to the list serve so I 
apologize if this has been asked previously….Currently, we report Fluid Bolus 
of 20ml/kg, CVP for lactate > 4 or inability to maintain MAP and initiation of 
vasopressors if MAP < 65 as separate measures. Some of our ED physicians have 
questioned if we should wait to start pressors until we have gotten to a CVP of 
8. Example: pt has a  MAP of 60 and a CVP of 4 after the fluid bolus –we look 
for the physician to start pressors.I’m wondering what other facilities are 
doing?Thanks!_______________________________________________
