Overview

Antibiotics 

Broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy is initiated if the level of perforation is unknown. The following tabel shows the regimens of choice in these cases:[1]

Regimen Dose
First choice regimens
Ampicillin-sulbactam 3 g IV every six hours
Piperacillin-tazobactam 3.375 or 4.5 g IV every six hours
Ticarcillin-clavulanate 3.1 g IV every four hours
Ceftriaxone 1 g IV every 24 hours
Metronidazole 500 mg IV every eight hours
Alternative regimens
Ciprofloxacin 400 mg IV every 12 hours
Levofloxacin 500 or 750 mg IV once daily
Metronidazole 500 mg IV every eight hours
Imipenem-cilastatin 500 mg IV every six hours
Meropenem 1 g IV every eight hours
Doripenem 500 mg IV every eight hours
Ertapenem 1 g IV once daily

Intravenous fluid therapy

Dynamic measures for circulation

  • There is an evidence that dynamic measures are more accurate predictors of fluid responsiveness than static measures. These measures include:[7]
  • Respiratory changes in the vena cava
  • Radial artery pulse pressure
  • Aortic blood flow peak velocity
  • Left ventricular outflow tract velocity-time integral
  • Brachial artery blood flow velocity are considered dynamic measures of fluid responsiveness
  • Serum lactate in patients with sepsis should be assessed until the lactate value has clearly fallen.

Vasopressors
