| *The time of first hypotension should be clarified. Is this during their specific icu stay or the first hypotension at presentation to the health care system ie. emergency, community hospitals, nursing homes, wards, etc. | | * Is this a reasonable judgement to ask for?

| ?Hypotension can sometimes go on for days prior to actual diagnosis of septic shock and transfer to ICU. Also it needs to be clear that the antibiotic start time must be related to the specific presentation of septic shock. | |
| Sometimes the patient is on antibiotics prior to onset of shock. I think I know what Dr.Kumar wants here as I have done some chart reviews for him in the past, but this must be made clear to all the data collectors so that it is
| |
| consistent. Also, be aware that finding the initial hypotension and
| |
| antibiotic start times can sometimes require quite an extensive chart search in some cases if the patient has been moved around between hospitals or wards.
