Does anyone have any information on Sepsis related to heat exhaustion or heat stroke? This time of year seems to bring these patients in that in presentation have all the criteria to screen and intervene as you would for Sepsis. Some os the same intervention applies, however, my ER Docs and staff do not feel it is beneficial to screen for Sepsis on these patients. I disagree. Anyone have any other information that supports this? Any help appreciated.

Our dilemma is the clinical abstractors need a physician order for the fluids given via EMS. The EMS sepsis protocol is based on physician orders, but is not a part of the patient record. I was wondering if anyone else had tackled this and how you were successful? Any feedback is appreciated.
