Sepsis Resuscitation Bundle
Serum lactate measured Blood cultures obtained prior to antibiotic administration From the time of presentation, broad-spectrum antibiotics to be given within 1 hour Control infective source In the event of hypotension and/or lactate >4mmol/L (36mg/dl):
Deliver an initial minimum of 20 ml/kg of crystalloid (or colloid equivalent) Give vasopressors for hypotension not responding to initial fluid resuscitation to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) > 65 mm Hg.

To be started immediately and completed within 6 hours)

In the event of persistent arterial hypotension despite volume resuscitation (septic shock) and/or initial lactate >4 mmol/l (36 mg/dl):
Achieve central venous pressure (CVP) of >8 mm Hg Achieve central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) >70%
