Abstract
Septic shock has high incidence and mortality rate in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). Earlier intravenous fluid resuscitation can significantly improve outcomes in septic patients but easily leads to fluid overload (FO), which is associated with poor clinical outcomes.
The etiology of sepsis differs according to site of infection. In this study, the most common source of infection was urinary tract infection (25 %) and septic peritonitis (25%) followed by post-surgical infection which represented 20 % of the patients.
