There is no work around, the patient would need the correct amount ordered and 
administered. It is my understanding that even for a dialysis patient they 
would benefit more from the fluid than they would from overload prevention. If 
they get too much they can be dialyzed.

Can someone please tell me the proper answer to a physician. A dialysis patient 
comes in with Septic Shock. A. If he orders the amount of fluid required but 
never starts it, will it pass? B. If he orders the correct amount and only 
administers 500ml of the total, will it pass? 
What is the work around for this part of the measure that is not taking into 
account physician clinical judgment?
Thank you

Hi Nicole,
In answer to your following question regarding the Septic shock time, it will 
be 0751, in other words the Septic Shock time will be same as Severe Sepsis 
time.
Thank you.

Can I get some assistance on this presentation time for Severe Sepsis/Shock?
Source of infection at 07:51
Two SIRS at 07:25 and 07:40
Organ dysfunction at 07:12
Severe Sepsis time=07:51---however, the organ dysfunction is a lactate of 5.1.  
Do I take the Septic Shock time as 07:51 since I can't say I have Septic Shock 
without a source of infection?  Thank you!

Subject: Re: [Sepsis Groups] Septic Shock Presentation Time

This is contradictory to everything they stated in both the power point and the 
Q&A.

>From the Q&A:
Question 61: If lactate is >4 and no crystalloid fluids are administered, do 
you answer ?Yes? or ?No? for Septic Shock present?
Answer 61: The Septic Shock Present data element's Notes for Abstraction 
indicates that if crystalloid fluids were not administered after the 
presentation date and time of severe sepsis, to choose Value "2 (No)."

Question 145: If initial lactate is >4, but no crystalloid fluids are given 
during the 6 hours after severe sepsis, do we answer "No" to septic shock?
Answer 145: Not necessarily. You would select "No" for Septic Shock Present if 
no crystalloid fluids were given at all after presentation of severe sepsis. 
There is no time frame after severe sepsis presentation associated with this. 
If fluids were not given within 6 hours following presentation of severe sepsis 
but were given after 6 hours, then you would select "Yes." This is an 
all-or-none point for crystalloid fluids.

Question 172: If the patient has severe sepsis and an initial lactate of 4.5 
but does not receive any crystalloid fluids, would it still be "No" to Septic 
Shock Present due to not having any crystalloids given?
Answer 172: Correct.

This was from the transcript of the CMS presentation on October 26 (page 27):
Now please note, in the septic shock present data element, there is a bullet 
point in the note for abstraction indicating that if crystalloid fluids were 
not administered after severe sepsis presentation date and time, that you would 
select allowable value 2 for septic shock present, which is equivalent to No. 
For purposes of SEP-1 measure, at this point in time, regardless of how septic 
shock is identified, if no crystalloid fluids were given after severe sepsis 
presentation, you will select allowable value 2, which is No, for septic shock 
present.

Subject: RE: [Sepsis Groups] Septic Shock Presentation Time

I sent the question regarding fluids and septic shock presentation to CMS and 
this is the response I received in November: 

Gena,
There are three ways to determine if Septic Shock is present. 
1.  Severe Sepsis present AND Hypotension persists in the hour after 
crystalloid fluid administration 2.  Severe Sepsis present AND Initial Lactate 
level >= 4mmol/L 3.  Physician documentation of septic shock
 
For #2 - Crystalloid fluid administration is not required to determine whether 
the patient has septic shock if using the presence of severe sepsis and the 
lactate level to determine.

Has something changed in the Spec Manual since the v5.0b came out?  This is 
copied and pasted from the manual:

*If criteria for Septic Shock are not met, but there is physician/APN/PA 
documentation of Septic Shock, choose Value ?1.? 

Allowable Values: 
1 (Yes) There is documentation of Septic Shock
2 (No) There is no documentation of Septic Shock, or unable to determine

Dr. Townsend, can you clarify this if physician documentation is not enough and 
let us know if this was changed/updated?

Clinical criteria for severe sepsis is met at 1002. Crystalloid bolus completed 
at 1247. SBP=79 @ 1300. SBP=87 @1330.

Initial lactic acid =4.0 resulted at 1126.

ED physician note started at 1047 containing documentation of possible septic 
shock.

Would septic shock presentation time be 1047, 1126 or 1300?

No initial lactate was done and the Crystalloid fluid administered was <30

What should I answer for the question Septic shock present, considering the
