Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the reliability of lactate clearance rate in evaluating the efficacy of early fluid resuscitation in the patients with severe sepsis.Methods One hundred and forty-two patients with severe sepsis,aged 28-87 yr,were enrolled in the study.Isotonic crystalloid fluid was infused after admission to ICU to maintain central venous pressure ≥ 8 mmHg,mean arterial pressure ≥ 65 mmHg,central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) ≥ 70%,and urine output ≥ 0.5 ml·kg 1 ·h-1 within 6 h.The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the treatment outcome:survival group and death group.Immediately before fluid resuscitation and at 6,12 and 24 h after fluid resuscitation,blood samples were collected from the central vein for blood gas analysis and ScvO2 was recorded.Blood samples were collected from the peripheral vein for determination of the concentration of lactate and lactate clearance rate was calculated.Results Compared with survival group,the lactate clearance rate was significantly decreased at 6,12 and 24 h after fluid resuscitation,and no significant change in ScvO2 was found in death group.Conclusion Lactate clearance rate can evaluate the efficacy of early fluid resuscitation in the patients with severe sepsis.
