Hi Everyone,
I am collecting data on Sepsis Alerts we are currently running in our three
EDs not inpatient yet. I also get HIM reports on severe sepsis we might have
missed in the ed and not alerted. My question is on exclusions I know if they
come in and are made comfort measures right away they are excluded. I have had
some cases where the person came in as a STEMI and was treated for that first
then discovered they also have sepsis and another case came in for severe GI
bleed had to be stabilized and then realized they had severe sepsis. So I just
want to be clear what patients should be excluded from the data collection.
Thank You,
Dana
