- Nursing Considerations
- Oxygenation and respiratory
function are priority
- Proper positioning
- ABGs monitored
- Circulatory function addressed
with combination of fluids and
medications
- Monitor:
- Vital signs
- body
temperature
- hemodynamic function
- urine output
- level of consciousness
- Signs and
Symptoms
- Body temperature
>38C or <36C
- influences tachycardia
- Heart rate >90
beats/min
- indication of tachycardia and hypovolemia
- Respiratory rate
>20 breaths/min
- Compensation for metabolic acidosis
- White blood cell count
>12 000 /mm3 or <4
000/mm3
- Altered mental status
- Hypoperfusion can show as
disorientation or confusion
- Apprehension, anxiety, agitation

syndrome (SIRS) in the setting
of infection
- SIRS causes vasodilation and capillary permeability
causing hypotention, hypoperfusion, metabolic acidosis,
elevated lactate levels and multisystem organ failure
