The Very Best Ways To Diagnose And Treat Sepsis

IV Fluids

When you're in the hospital, men, sepsis means IV fluids! You'll get them so fast. So fast! You'll get them within 3 hours. They're going to stop your blood pressure dropping. They'll stop it! IV fluids stop you from going into shock. They're so, so good because an IV line means your doc can track how much fluid you get. The line will control what type you get too! All while stopping damage from sepsis. Win!

Saline is the most common IV fluid. Yes, men, you guessed it. It's made from water and sodium! The sodium's what is going to help your body absorb all this fluid. It's a powerful electrolyte! Colloids are thicker than it, so they won't dissolve as fast! But men? You'll still need some saline to balance everything out!
