Senior Consultant Pediatric and Intensivist - Yashoda Hospital

Pediatric septic shock is a time-critical emergency where rapid recognition and decisive initial resuscitation are vital to preventing multi-organ failure. Because hemodynamic presentations in children can be deceptive—frequently oscillating between cold and warm shock—clinicians must act swiftly before cardiovascular collapse occurs.In this high-yield session, Dr. Sneha T breaks down essential bedside management protocols for pediatric septic shock. The discussion focuses on early recognition of subtle hypoperfusion, goal-directed fluid resuscitation without causing overload, timely initiation of first-line vasopressors, and prompt broad-spectrum antibiotic coverage. Clinicians will gain practical strategies for monitoring clinical end-points and establishing clear escalation triggers for pediatric intensive care.
