Colleagues, The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released a new campaign entitled, Get Ahead of Sepsis<https://www.cdc.gov/sepsis/get-ahead-of-sepsis/index.html>. The material can be accessed worldwide by the public and clinicians. Get Ahead of Sepsis calls on healthcare professionals to educate patients, prevent infections, suspect and identify sepsis early, and start sepsis treatment fast. In addition, this work urges patients and their families to prevent infections, be alert to the symptoms of sepsis, and seek immediate medical care if sepsis is suspected or for an infection that is not improving or is getting worse.
There are a number of resources available on the website that can be downloaded, printed, and shared. A link has also been created on the Surviving Sepsis Campaign<http://www.survivingsepsis.org/> website home page for your convenience. With best regards, Lori A.
