Coach Ed Orgeron is back on the sidelines as LSU Football’s special assistant for recruiting and defense, but he started the football season off fighting for his life.

This sounds great. Sounds great that FMOL is doing some cutting edge research. But sepsis recognition algorithms are well defined. Fluid resuscitation and IV antibiotics are critical to treatment and were likely already being administered before this test result returned.

Blood cultures take a minimum of 8 hours to flag positive, mostly longer though.

But you don’t wait for those results to initiate treatment. Sepsis is initially a clinical diagnosis. Shoot first ask questions later…start fluids, start antibiotics.

Yes, absolutely.

I was watching him walk the sidelines against Bama and talk to the D line. He still looked like he was in relative agony.
Will he ever be 100% or is this how it is now for him forever?

It had been rumored on the board he had sepsis. Today was the first I saw it publicly confirmed.

Great news, that is serious stuff

Sepsis is a medical emergency -- broad spectrum antibiotic treatment needs to begin before microbial identification and susceptibility/resistance tests are confirmed.
Coach O's recovery is more than a minor miracle

I was in a coma due to Sepsis, it is not recommended.

Gotta admit, I didn’t have bio-medical post on my TRant bingo card but I’m here for it

So he did have sepsis?
I'm confused. Didn't New Orleans radio and TV host Kaare Johnson share that O was in the hospital battling sepsis. However, my confusion is that I remember Matt Moscona on his morning show said that was completely false and he knew the real reason and wasn't going to share.
If I have this wrong please correct me, but that's how I remember it. I thought it was odd that Kaare Johnson would share that, but Moscona said it wasn't true.
