Evaporative cooling is the preferred method to actively reduce body temperature in the emergency department , as it can be performed with ongoing resuscitation efforts. Ice water immersion and iced peritoneal lavage are additional methods used to lower temperature but are more invasive or can prevent additional resuscitative efforts.

We have a few minutes to optimize, to resuscitate before we intubate. Etomidate is perfectly acceptable, but ketamine is actually a superior drug to etomidate in the rapid sequence intubation of children in septic shock.

First, there can be a poor correlation between venous and arterial gases in states of shock, hemodynamic instability, or extremes of acid-base disturbances, due to poor cardiac output/circulatory failure impairing venous and arterial flow, with associated poor gas exchange as well as hypercapnia and acidemia at the tissue level (8).
