COVID-19 Recovery Program Could Be Modeled After Virtual Sepsis Care
An existing virtual transition and recovery program for patients with sepsis may be used as a model for similar programs for COVID-19 survivors.

Mechanically Ventilated Adults With Sepsis: Dexmedetomidine vs Propofol for Sedation
Light sedation with dexmedetomidine does not lead to more days alive without acute brain dysfunction compared with propofol in mechanically ventilated adults with sepsis.
Previous Infection and Antibiotic Use Linked to Guillain-Barré Syndrome
Danish researchers looked into whether hospital-diagnosed and community-treated infections are important risk factors for GBS by examining the magnitude and duration of associated GBS risk.
Outcome Disparities in Pediatric Sepsis By Ethnicity, Insurance Status
Study authors sought to determine whether hospital outcomes in childhood severe sepsis were influenced by race, ethnicity, or insurance status, which are proxies for socioeconomic positions.
Healthy Microbiome Is Key to Sepsis Management
The authors emphasize that sepsis treatment should be guided by the connection between the microbiota and sepsis outcomes.
Dexmedetomidine No Better Than Propofol for Adults With Sepsis
For light sedation of mechanically ventilated adults with sepsis, outcomes do not differ significantly for those receiving dexmedetomidine or propofol.
What Infectious Conditions Are Associated With Splenic Infarction?
This retrospective study aims to shed light on the relationship between splenic infarction and infection.
Optical Biosensor Predicts Sepsis or Severe Infection in Patients at Risk
A study examines the accuracy of a new optical biosensor point-of-care device for the detection of severe infections.
Disparities Seen in Pediatric Sepsis Outcomes in the U.S.
For children with severe sepsis outcomes vary by race or ethnicity and by insurance status.
