Cortisol is necessary to survive critical but absolute adrenal insufficiency is rare among critically ill patients . However many observations argue that suboptimal cortisol production may be common and associated with worse outcomes . Suboptimal cortisol production during septic shock has been termed functional or relative adrenal insufficiency . In the 1990 s interest in corticosteroids as a therapy in septic shock was renewed this time using smaller more physiological doses for longer duration
