Sepsis is a serious worldwide health care condition that is associated with high mortality rates, despite improvements in the ability to manage infection. New guidelines for the management of sepsis were recently released that advocate for implementation of care based on evidence-based practice for both adult and pediatric patients. Critical care nurses are directly involved in the assessment of patients at risk for developing sepsis and in the treatment of patients with sepsis and can, therefore, affect outcomes for critically ill patients. Nurses' knowledge of the recommendations in the new guidelines can help to ensure that patients with sepsis receive therapies that are based on the latest scientific evidence. This article presents an overview of new evidence-based recommendations for the treatment of adult patients with sepsis, highlighting the role of critical care nurses.
脓毒症是一种严重的全球健康状况,尽管在感染管理方面有所改善,但死亡率仍然很高。最近发布了新的脓毒症管理指南,提倡为成人和儿科患者实施基于循证实践的护理。重症监护护士直接参与评估有发生脓毒症风险的患者,并对脓毒症患者进行治疗,因此可以影响重症患者的结局。护士对新指南中建议的了解可以帮助确保脓毒症患者接受基于最新科学证据的治疗。本文概述了新的循证建议,以治疗成人脓毒症患者,重点介绍了重症监护护士的作用。
