So, fluid has been tried but has not got close to fixing the problem. In middle-to-high-income countries, after 40-60ml/kg of fluid resuscitation, the Surviving Sepsis Campaign International Guidelines recommend using vasoactive drugs. The wide pulse pressure and transient response would suggest an afterload problem.
