Subject: [External] [Sepsis Groups] Early identification in the ED
Warning: This email originated from the Internet!
DO NOT CLICK links if the sender is unknown, and NEVER provide your password.
Now that the measure does not use a nurse assessment of "suspect infection" as
a component in establishing time zero, we are missing this measure as time zero
is identified by CMS criteria later than our ED nurse triage process with
automated labs. ED providers document later which is resulting in us missing
the measure. Sepsis is being identified earlier and all appropriate bundle
care is completed. Is anyone else recognizing this as an issue?
