Stanford has two protocols covering RNs for drawing lactates. They are both 
standardized procedures (protocols) ordered as "per protocol without cosign."

1. Standardized procedure (protocol) for the bedside RN to order a stat lactate 
when their patient screens positive for sepsis
2. Standardized procedure (protocol) for the Rapid Response RN to order an 
initial lactate AND a repeat lactate if the initial was elevated > 2 mmol/L
        a. This protocol includes additional elements of the 3 hour bundle

Mary Ann, this is very progressive work that your team at Sutter Health is 
doing.  I?m trying to work in this type of forward thinking into my client 
sites so that the patient gets the right care at the right time.  Kudos!

MARY!!!!! Hello Friend;

All Sutter Health hospitals have the opportunity to use a nursing SP for 
initiation of the severe sepsis bundle (1L bolus if hypotension present) 
Slightly different for ED and inpatient (RRT uses) Not all affiliates use 
either or both , but most do.
And as of July 12, we have automated repeat lactates for any value >1.9.


Thanks,

Subject: [External] [Sepsis Groups] Nursing Lactate Protocol Information

Good Morning,
               For facilities that use a Nursing procedure to collect lactate 
specimens, how does your institution verify or co-sign the order of the 
lactate?  Is anyone using a completely independent nursing standard procedure 
or protocol that providers do not verify or authenticate?

Thank you in advance!

I have an interesting situation where the ED provider of record on the day of 
arrival to the ED (2/12) didn't dictate his note until (2/14 or date/time the 
service as on 2/12). With this discrepancy in dates yet it is clear from the 
orders, etc that he cared for this patient on 2/12 what do you all think about 
using his PE to meet the 6 hr bundle compliance?
Appreciate any feedback, thanks.
