Greetings,
We are in the process of setting up report cards for outcomes, and I am
wondering if anyone can tell me the guidelines and/or benchmarks you are using
at your facilities for the Sepsis campaign. Also if anyone knows what the
national standards are?? I am looking for a percentage of compliance to
compare to, so we can assign a green light (meeting the standard) yellow light
(caution!!) or a red light (not meeting the standard). I am looking for the
benchmarks for the following:
ED LOS
Antibiotic within 1 hour of dx
Fluids > 30ml/kg
Appropriate vasopressor usage
SCv02 Catheter placement
Lactic acid drawn
Sepsis screening completed
Thank you for your guidance.
Susan
