To combat the growing risk, national regulatory initiatives have been upping the ante on effective response from the healthcare community. Against that backdrop lies an increasingly value-based reimbursement environment, making both the delivery of quality care and improvement in patient outcomes essential to a healthcare organization’s positive financial performance.

Preventing infection is a critical aspect of delivering quality care and improving patient outcomes, and—in an increasingly value-based reimbursement climate—is essential to a health care organization’s financial performance.

Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Sepsis can be triggered by bacterial, viral, or fungal pathogens. Septic shock is a complication of sepsis and is characterized by hypotension requiring vasopressor support to maintain adequate mean arterial blood pressure. Early diagnosis and treatment, within 1-2 hours of presentation, has been shown to improve patient outcomes and decrease overall mortality from sepsis.

Sepsis and septic shock are serious, life-threatening responses to infection that impact millions of patients worldwide. Early identification and management of these conditions improve outcomes. Use this infographic as a reference guide for lab results needed to screen patients for sepsis.

Sepsis is a medical emergency and should be treated as such. Outcomes are improved with early identification and immediate intervention in patients with sepsis or septic shock. Patients with sepsis and septic shock require initial and ongoing assessment and reevaluation of their response to treatment. Become familiar with the recommendations and best-practice statements provided in this summary of the latest guidelines, especially if you work in an acute care setting.
