That means they only want to pick up patients very late in their course of 
sepsis. The real opportunity is to identify patients early and prevent them 
from every going into septic shock. The latter is a much better way to improve 
the outcome in severe sepsis and septic shock.

Subject: Re: [Sepsis Groups] Time Zero

Our ED Physicians are wanting to call "time zero"  the time of the first BP 
with systolic below 90.  I have not found any research to support this 
approach.  Any information I can share with them to bring them along would be 
welcome. (in particular research that looks at the issue)

Thanks

Subject: Re: [Sepsis Groups] Time Zero

Our time zero starts when the patient declares. If the SIRS criteria are met at 
triage then that is time zero. Should the patient for example have just 
tachycardia noted in triage and the WBC count comes back elevated that is time 
zero.

Thanks Karin,

I understand the pragmatic reasons behind it, but personally I'm uncomfortable 
with using ICU admission time unless you can be certain there are never any 
delays in recognition, referral and ICU admission for ward-based patients.

In the UK, this is far from the case and I would urge organizations not to 
measure only the performance of their ED and ITU (if there is no reliable 
temporal relationship between ward-based onset and ICU admission, this will 
ultimately have the effect of demonstrating non-efficacy of EGDT anyway).

Kind regards

Ron

Fang, this sounds like an opportunity for a global sampling of volunteer
