Sepsis ‐ Situation

BSLMC is no exception. In 2015 and 2016, 3060 patients were diagnosed with sepsis, severe sepsis, or septic shock; 572 of

these patients expired.

Sepsis – Background

BSLMC launched a Surviving Sepsis Working group in 2015 to improve sepsis related outcomes. The work group has built an early detection program and treatment tools for sepsis from the SSC bundles that additionally promote compliance with the CMS

quality metrics for sepsis care.

• The Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) is a partnership of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Society of Critical Care Medicine formed in 2002 to promote advances in sepsis care, in order to improve outcomes.

• The SSC has created evidence based “bundles” of care for early recognition and treatment of sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock. These bundles are grouped by timing of interventions into three hour and six hour bundles.

• A large landmark international study (62 countries) showed that use of these bundles decreased severe sepsis and septic shock mortality by 40 %.1

New definition emphasizes host of patient response to infection not so much as SIRS but as organ dysfunction due to SIRS that is harmful.

As the extent and severity of sepsis related syndromes is so significant, and the Surviving Sepsis Campaign bundles so effective in treatment of sepsis, that CMS began requiring hospitals to report compliance with the Surviving Sepsis Campaign three and six hour bundles for sepsis syndromes.

“Minutes Saves Lives!”

“We encourage the implementation of international sepsis guidelines to enable healthcare workers to recognize sepsis earlier, and treat it more effectively.”Global Alliance for

Sepsis 2016

“If sepsis is recognized and treated within the first hour, the chanceof survival is over 80%. Widespread effective early‐recognition and treatment systems are critical to increasing sepsis survival rates” “For every hour of delay in recognition and treatment of sepsis, mortality goes up 7.6 %.” (World Sepsis Day, 2016).

Sepsis Fact –

At BSLMC sepsis mortality rate is almost 150% less if recognized and treated early.

Notify Secondary Sepsis Screening Nurse (RRT or Designated Nurse)

RRT or Designated Nurse will notify MD of Positive Secondary Sepsis

If NO: Continue to Monitor Patient (PSA)

What is qSOFA Sepsis Screening?

Timely & Appropriate Medical Treatment

• MD Assessment required for a positive sepsis screen

• “Sepsis Notes 1“ is required documentation for MDs responding to a positive sepsis screen. This note also helps in determining SIRS, Sepsis, Severe Sepsis or Septic Shock.

• “Sepsis Order Set “ If the patient has severe sepsis or septic shock the “sepsis order set” based on early intervention bundles is required, unless contraindicated.

If the patient has simple sepsis the order may or may not be used based on the physician's clinical judgment

• “Sepsis Notes 2 “is required documentation for MDs treating Severe Sepsis or Septic Shock. It helps MDs track course of severe sepsis and septic shock and intervention effect.

At BSLMC proven that “Sepsis Order Set” delivers tremendous outcome advantage over “ad hoc” sepsis treatments…..

Dynamic Sepsis Assessment and InterventionCritical

“Sepsis is a highly dynamic process, especially at onset. It requires ongoing assessment of severity, organ dysfunction, intervention effect, and stepwise escalation or de‐escalation of care.”
