ITU use their blood gas machine. Others got through Abbott Architects in laboratory. The lactate is indicated in patient with SUSPECTED sepsis not just confirmed cases. http://www.acb.org.uk/AnnClinBiochem/annals_pdf/July99/ACB401.PDF <http://www.acb.org.uk/AnnClinBiochem/annals_pdf/July99/ACB401.PDF> Crit Care Med. <javascript:AL_get(this,%20'jour',%20'Crit%20Care%20Med.');> 2004 Aug;32(8):1637-42 Early lactate clearance is associated with improved outcome in severe sepsis and septic shock. <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=pubmed&Cmd=Search&Term=%22Nguye n%20HB%22%5BAuthor%5D&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel .Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_RVAbstractPlus> Nguyen HB, <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=pubmed&Cmd=Search&Term=%22River s%20EP%22%5BAuthor%5D&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel .Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_RVAbstractPlus> Rivers EP, <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=pubmed&Cmd=Search&Term=%22Knobl ich%20BP%22%5BAuthor%5D&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPan el.Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_RVAbstractPlus> Knoblich BP, <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=pubmed&Cmd=Search&Term=%22Jacob sen%20G%22%5BAuthor%5D&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPane l.Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_RVAbstractPlus> Jacobsen G, <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=pubmed&Cmd=Search&Term=%22Muzzi n%20A%22%5BAuthor%5D&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.

Are people using blood gas machines at point of care or in the lab? Other rapid methods found to work well? Many thanks.
