We have been working on sepsis for years and decided just recently we would roll out a code sepsis for the septic shock patient. The reason for septic shock is because our numbers for our compliance for our 3 hour bundle is pretty good and since this is new we will start with this group.
We will have the Rapid Response nurse and the Hospitalist Provider attend this code. We are going to do it like our Code STEMI where there in an internal system to notify everyone that needs to be notified (pharmacy, sepsis coordinator etc) so it is not overhead paged and then there is massive group that shows up to respond. I am working on finishing up this policy. Can share once it is completed.

Using it notifies the sepsis nurse ( a critical care nurse) to come to the bedside and help assure that the 3 and 6 hope bundle are since properly.

I have been tasked to find out how other institutions have accomplished this who do not have an alert in their EMR. Would anyone be willing to share a policy, protocol or description of their code sepsis procedure at their institution? Also, do you have a dedicated sepsis coordinator? If so, who do they report to and how do they function in that role? I’d love that job description as well. Thanks in advance.
