Abstract
Background: The efficacy of the SEP-1 Bundle has been questioned in the treatment of patients with hospital-acquired sepsis. We aimed to investigate bundle compliance and its association with survival in a subset of patients with HA sepsis: those with ICU-acquired sepsis.
Methods: A single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary care referral hospital. Adult patients diagnosed with ICU-acquired sepsis between 1 January 2019 and 31 December 2022 were identified. Survival to hospital discharge adjusted for disease severity based on 3-hour, 6-hour, and total bundle compliance was calculated. Secondary outcomes included the need for mechanical ventilation, vasopressors, initiation of acute hemodialysis, and discharge location.
Results: Of 191 patients with ICU-acquired sepsis, 61 patients (31.9%) demonstrated total bundle compliance. There was no difference in survival based on the unadjusted analysis of 3-hour bundle compliance, compliant versus non-compliant (78.9% vs. 67.0%; P = 0.100). However, there was a survival benefit in 6-hour and total bundle, compliance versus non-compliance (82.2% vs. 60.0%, P < 0.001; 86.9% vs. 64.6%, P = 0.002). When adjusted for SOFA and CCI, logistic regression demonstrated similar results: 3-hour compliance (OR: 0.60; 95% CI: 0.29-1.18, P = 0.150), 6-hour compliance (OR: 0.35; 95% CI: 0.17-0.68, P = 0.002) and total compliance (OR: 0.31; 95% CI: 0.13-0.69, P = 0.006). Components of the SEP-1 Bundle that showed a mortality benefit included the collection of "blood cultures prior to antibiotic administration" (OR: 0.46; 95% CI 0.22-0.96, P = 0.037) and "tissue perfusion assessment" (OR: 0.41; 95% CI 0.18-0.90, P = 0.028).
Conclusions: Six-hour and total SEP-1 bundle compliance was associated with increased hospital survival in patients with ICU-acquired sepsis. These findings suggest the importance of sepsis bundle compliance in the ICU environment.
背景:SEP-1 Bundle在治疗医院获得性脓毒症患者中的疗效一直受到质疑。我们的目的是调查束依从性及其与HA脓毒症患者生存率的关系:icu获得性脓毒症患者。方法:在某三级转诊医院进行单中心回顾性队列研究。确定了2019年1月1日至2022年12月31日期间诊断为重症监护病房获得性败血症的成年患者。根据疾病严重程度调整3小时、6小时和总束依从性,计算到出院的生存率。次要结局包括需要机械通气、血管加压药、开始急性血液透析和出院地点。结果:191例icu获得性败血症患者中,61例患者(31.9%)表现出完全依从性。基于未经调整的3小时束依从性分析,依从性与不依从性的生存率无差异(78.9% vs 67.0%;p = 0.100)。然而,在6小时和总束中,依从性与不依从性(82.2% vs. 60.0%, P)存在生存获益。结论:6小时和总SEP-1束依从性与icu获得性败血症患者的住院生存率增加相关。这些发现提示了脓毒症bundle依从性在ICU环境中的重要性。临床试验号:不适用。
