Our Lactate order is Stat and then q 3 hours times 2 no matter what the
initial lactate level is. We have found (with the help of Wolters Kluwer Health
and the Point of Care Advisor) that about 5% (4.7%) of our patients with an
initial lactate less than 2 go on to develop septic SHOCK.

Our elevated lactate reflexes at four hours, but I educate on re-drawing after

Subject: {EXTERNAL} [Sepsis Groups] lactic acid reflex time
Good afternoon,
Currently we reflex any lactic acid that is > 2 to be re-drawn in 2 hrs.
I’m wondering what others’ practices are when reflexing the lactic acid – do
you use a 2 hr timeframe, or 3 hr, or?
Thanks so much!
