July AZEMCast - The Approach to Sepsis Alerts

Happy July everyone!

Welcome to the new interns. You’re gonna get quite familiar with all the nuances of the electronic medical record system but none quite as much as sepsis alerts. We dig deep into those questions you want to know about sepsis alerts like: Q: Are they good or bad for your patient? A: Yes. Q: Are we overcalling the disease or finally getting it under control? A: Sure Q:Are they annoying or necessary? A: Definitely! As a primer, Dr. Brian Drummond, Dr. Chris Williams and I give you some background, evidence, explanation and heavy opinion on why we have these alerts and what they mean for your patients and your ED flow.
