hi,i need some opinion from all of you..i had a patient who was diagnosed as septic shock because of its clinical signs (high fever, warm extremity, very high heart rate:130-150, low blood pressure with increased pulse pressure (low map:50-60 mmHg), Sa02 90-93% intubated) and also the complete blood count (high leucocytes, low Hb and Ht) and also the high D dimer..the BGA revealed acidosis metabolic with concomitant alkalosis respiratory. PO2/Fio2 ratio < 200 and, from the history, he had a chronic renal failure.
i need opinion from you, after only 1 liters of RL solution, we recognized little rales from this patient's dependent right lung...so ,my friend told me not to give any more fluid because the ARDS causing the increased permeability of pulmonary vasculature and if we gave any more fluid, we can make more pulmonary edema and worsen the oxygenation...but there was no other signs of hypervolemia besides that rales and the blood pressure was still decreasing with no response moderate dose of dobutamine and dopamine and the pulse was still weak. oh , the patient's family resisted to have the invasive procedure such as CVC , PAOP and NIABP for this patient, so we can't measure it by those tools..
what do you think i should do for this patient?
how can i correct the hypovolemia from a patient who had a septic shock with ARDS complication and a history of Chronic Renal Failure? can we give volume rescucitation without causing the pulmonary edema?
please help me with some opinion..thx u
