Attention to sepsis treatment
Septicaemia is an organ function disorder syndrome due to infection-response disorders, which is complex and requires careful treatment. The following is a detailed description of care for sepsis treatment, which is intended to help patients and their families better understand and cooperate in treatment.
Early identification and timely intervention
Early symptoms of septicaemia may include tremors, heat, panic, agitation, etc., and should they occur, medical attention should be provided. Doctors will diagnose patients on the basis of their clinical performance, laboratory and video tests and start treatment programmes as soon as possible. Because of the rapid progress of sepsis, early identification and timely intervention are essential to increase the cure rate.
Liquid recovery and life-support signs
Liquid resuscitation: sepsis patients are often accompanied by low tissue infusion, so liquid recovery should take place as soon as possible to restore arterial blood pressure and tissue infusion. Liquid recovery requires a one-to-two input of glue and crystal, and close monitoring of adverse reactions during recovery.
Life maintenance signs: In the course of treatment, the vital signs of the patient, including heart rate, blood pressure, frequency of breathing, etc., should be closely monitored to ensure that they are stable.
Controlling the source of infection and the rational use of antibiotics
Controlling the source of infection: In cases of sepsis, the source should be identified as soon as possible and measures should be taken to control it, such as sepsis diversion, removal of infected or dead solid tissues, removal of infected alien or devices, etc.
Rational use of antibiotics: antibiotics are important drugs for septicaemia, but the following should be noted in their use:
Bacteria culture and pharmacological sensitivity experiments: Before antibiotics are used, it is advisable to conduct bacterial culture and pharmacological experiments to determine the type and sensitivity of pathogens and to select sensitive antibiotics for treatment.
Type and dose of antibiotics: Select the appropriate type and dose of antibiotics, depending on the type of fungi and the patient ‘ s circumstances. At the same time, attention should be paid to the side effects and adverse effects of antibiotics and to the timely adjustment of treatment programmes.
Time of use of antibiotics: The time of use of antibiotics should be determined on the basis of the patient ‘ s clinical performance, laboratory and video-testing, to avoid overuse or misuse of antibiotics.
Supporting treatment and nutritional support
Supportive treatment: Supportive treatment should be provided for patients with low blood pressure, shock, etc., through rehydration, erythrocyte suspension, etc., in order to maintain their vital signs.
Nutritional support: Nutritional support should be strengthened as sepsis is often associated with malnutrition and reduced immune functions. Patients can eat light, digestible foods, such as congee, noodles, and some more high-protein foods, such as eggs, milk, and fresh vegetables and fruits to supplement their bodies with nutrients.
V. Surgery and Chinese medicine
Surgery: Surgery may be required for patients with organ dysfunction associated with sepsis, such as continuous kidney substitution treatment, liver transplants, etc. Prior to the surgical treatment, the patient ‘ s surgical risks and tolerance should be fully assessed and a reasonable surgical programme developed.
Medical treatment: The treatment of sepsis in Chinese medicine includes acupuncture therapy and Chinese soup treatment. The acupuncture therapy can alleviate the infirmity of patients, such as heat, pain, etc.; the Chinese pharmacist treatment is dominated by the accelerant detoxification, and the usual formula is silver stale, etc. Please note, however, that Chinese medical treatment should be conducted under the guidance of a professional medical practitioner.
VI. Psychological support and care
The treatment of septicaemia is long and painful, and patients and their families may be under great psychological stress. Patients and their families should therefore be given adequate psychological support to help them build confidence against disease. At the same time, care for patients is being strengthened, indoor air circulation is being maintained, oral hygiene is being observed and secondary infections are being prevented.
In conclusion, the treatment of sepsis is a complex and systematic process requiring the joint efforts of patients, family members and medical personnel. Through early identification and timely intervention, liquid resuscitation and life-sustaining signs, control of the source of infection and rational use of antibiotics, supportive treatment and nutritional support, surgical and Chinese treatment, and psychological support and care, we can effectively improve the curing rate of sepsis and reduce the rate of death.
