Are we still holding on to this adrenocortical insufficiency diagnosis?
Septic shock leading to Adrenal insufficiency sir
How is it shock when bp is maintaining?
Can anyone share I/O charting?
What's causing 'septic shock',though?Any GB pathology?
Enterococcus in blood..??
How does it lead to adrenal insufficiency? We see septic shock everyday. How many develop adrenal insufficiency?
Where did it come from? A perforated gall bladder?
Yesterday we asked how we made this exotic diagnosis and everyone kept quiet
If you look at his AKI you can better explain it with a biliary sepsis than with adrenocortical insufficiency?
