ineffective.
High tidal volume (>10 ml/lg) should be used in most patients requiring
mechanical ventilation.
Adults with high risk of methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) septic shock should
use broad-spectrum antimicrobials with MRSA
coverage over broad-spectrum antimicrobials
without MRSA is best practice.
Dopamine should be used as first-line agent for hemodynamic response.
