Advances made against the deadly infection complication, sepsis

Sepsis is an inflammatory response to infection that’s known to develop in hospital settings and can turn deadly when it’s not discovered early on. In a new study, a hospital surveillance program focusing on reducing the risks of sepsis, known as the two-stage Clinical Decision Support (CDS) system, was found to reduce the risk of adverse outcomes, such as death and hospice discharge for sepsis patients, by 30% over the course of one year. This study is published today in the American Journal of Medical Quality (A SAGE Journal).
