OBJECTIVES: To compare the outcomes of pediatric severe sepsis and septic shock among patients with culture-positive and culture-negative sepsis and to determine if there are differentiating markers of disease severity between these 2 populations during their initial presentation and emergency department (ED) stay.
STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study of patients ≤21 years of age who presented to the ED of a single children's hospital with severe sepsis or septic shock from June 1, 2017 to June 5, 2019.
RESULTS: There were 235 patients who met criteria for severe sepsis or septic shock. Of these, 139 (59.1%) had culture-negative sepsis and 96 (40.9%) had culture-positive sepsis. In the adjusted multivariable model, children with culture-negative sepsis had more intensive care unit (ICU)-free days than those with culture-positive sepsis (27.3 vs 24.1; adjusted median differences [aMD] -2.6 [-4.4, -0.8]). There were no differences in mortality or hospital-free days. On initial presentation, there were no differences in fever, hypothermia, tachycardia, tachypnea, or hypotension between the 2 groups. There were no differences in proportion of patients receiving the following interventions: intravenous (IV) antibiotics, IV fluids, vasoactive medications, CPR, intubation, or time from arrival to provision of these interventions.
CONCLUSIONS: Culture-negative sepsis constitutes a substantial proportion of pediatric severe sepsis and septic shock. In this study, patients with culture-negative and culture-positive sepsis presented similarly on arrival to the ED and received similar treatments while there. Patients with culture-negative sepsis had more ICU-free days than those with culture-positive sepsis, although differences in hospital length of stay (LOS) and mortality were not observed.
