Questions about Septic Shock

Do doctors need to give extra oxygen to patients with septic shock?

Yes, doctors often give extra oxygen to septic shock patients, but recent evidence shows conservative oxygen targets (SpO2 88-94%) are as safe as liberal targets, with no difference in mortality.

Is it better to have high or low pulse pressure when you have septic shock?

In septic shock, a pulse pressure between 40-70 mmHg during the first 24 hours is linked to lower 28-day mortality; both very low and very high pulse pressure are associated with worse outcomes.
