Adult Sepsis Empiric Antibiotic Guidelines . This book is unique in approaching multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) from the perspective of its pathophysiological mechanism, and addressing aspects that are overlooked in most of the available literature. A combination of inadequate diagnostic criteria for sepsis and time pressure to provide broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy remains an obstacle for antimicrobial stewardship. Antibiotic choices should be based on the clinician's assessment of the most likely source of . If an infection is particularly severe or the person's immune system is weak, the bacteria can spread throughout the blood to other parts of the body more quickly. Sepsis is an important public health problem around the world. Severe sepsis carries significant morbidity, mortality and high costs. Accessibility In principle, the optimal duration of antibiotic therapy in sepsis would be one that maximizes clinical effectiveness while minimizing the antibiotic-associated risks such as toxicities, Clostridioides difficile -associated disease, and emergence of resistance, as well as health care costs.
