Hi All,

We are creating an electronic screening process with our EMR system (Epic).  
Through this process patients with SIRS and organ dysfunction will be 
identified.  The nurse will still need to answer some questions related to 
suspected or confirmed infection and some other exclusions that we are 
considering.

My question is - does anyone have any thoughts about what documentation should 
be required related to screening or nursing actions resulting from screening.  
I ask this because I believe that we will be able to abstract nurse's responses 
and actions using a report built off of the EMR, so I am thinking we won't need 
to require any extra documentation.
