RESUMO

Severe sepsis and septic shock are complications that develop from an inflammatory process leading to high mortality in the intensive care unit (ICU) and characterized by cardiovascular, renal and metabolic dysfunction. The pharmacological therapy (PT) aims at offering hemodynamic support and at reducing glycemic levels. In this scenario, the present study had the objective of analyzing the impact of PT and of the glycemic alteration in the clinical evolution of severe sepsis and septic shock patients in the first 72 hours. This is a randomized control trial in which the patients (n=46) were divided into intensive glycemic group (maintenance of glycemia between 80-110mg/dl) and conventional glycemic group (maintenance of glycemia between 180-220 mg/dl). The data were collected in the 2004-2006 period in a University Hospital in the city of São Paulo. In the statistical analysis, the tests used were t-student, Qui-Quadrado, being considered meaningful p<0,05. The results showed that the sample was formed by male patients (58.7%), clinical patients (78.3%) that presented septic shock (78.3%) as a result of infection in the respiratory system (39.1%), with cardiac dysfunction (36.9%) and those that presented acute renal lesion (56.5%). The average age was 51.6 years. The most commonly prescribed support drugs were noradrenaline (69.6%, 56.5%) and hydrocortisone (56.5%, 67.4%) in the first 24 and 48 hours. In the comparison between groups, statistically significant difference was observed (p=0,00) in the glycemic average, there was no statistically significant difference for the variables: minimal FC (p=0,68), maximum (p=0,11), minimum PAM (p=0,06) and maximum (p=0,11), DU (p=0,23), CR (p=0,33), volume infundido de cristalóides (p=0,10) and mortality (p=0,11). The hemodynamic instability in the conventional group lasted longer and deaths occurred only among the conventional group patients. Therefore, the data suggest that the intensive glycemic control favors the hemodynamic recovery of septic shock patients and, in a way, protects them from death
