A key component of the first-line management of the septic patient is the administration of IV antimicrobial therapy. Antimicrobial therapy plays a pivotal role in the management of intra-abdominal infections, especially in patients with severe sepsis who require immediate empiric antibiotic therapy. ...
The full spectrum of sepsis produced was similar to that seen in human peritonitis and intraabdominal abscess formation.
