Slide 25 in the September 21,2015 CMS webinar states "If crystalloid fluids not administered after presentation date and time of severe sepsis, select NO" to Septic Shock Present. This is also indicated on page 92 of the specs manual version 5.0b.How would this be abstracted if the full volume of crystalloid fluids were not administered after severe sepsis presentation date/time even if there is physician documentation of septic shock?
