Journal Article
Lyttle, M. D., Marlais, M., Lyttle, M., & Inwald, D. (2017). Ten concerns about blood pressure measurement and targets in paediatric sepsis. Intensive Care Medicine, 43(3), 433-435. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00134-016-4642-7

Current paediatric sepsis guidelines suggest that resuscitation is titrated against clinical markers of hypovolaemia and end organ perfusion [1], including blood pressure (BP), heart rate and capillary refill time (CRT). BP is used both as a defining... Read More about Ten concerns about blood pressure measurement and targets in paediatric sepsis.
