Improving outcomes for severe sepsis and septic shock: tools for early identification of at-risk patients and treatment protocol implementation.

Emanuel P Rivers1, Tom Ahrens.   

Abstract

Sepsis is a significant problem, and septicemia is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States. Sepsis incidence is increasing, and the mortality rate is 20% to 50% for patients with severe sepsis. This article identifies methods for improving outcomes of severe sepsis and septic shock. Included are recommendations for diagnosis and treatment. Case studies are included.
