Dear Colleagues, Thanks to the outstanding communications and scientific team at CDC and a group of dedicated Surviving Sepsis Campaign leaders, Sepsis Alliance, Rory Staunton Foundation and other stakeholders, the CDC has posted a number of new resources on their website. Starting with the home page of the CDC Vitalsigns portal http://www.cdc.gov/vitalsigns/ there are new fact sheets<http://www.cdc.gov/sepsis/pdfs/sepsis-fact-sheet.pdf> and infographics<http://www.cdc.gov/sepsis/pdfs/sepsis_infographic_final.pdf> for clinicians and the general public.
These resources are available for your sepsis awareness activities, interactions with patients and their families or in other ways you deem helpful. Also check out this link<http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/65/wr/mm6533e1.htm?s_cid=mm6533e1_w> to the Making Health Care Safer. Think Sepsis. Time Matters. Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. This scientific publication can be shared and discussed in your sepsis team meetings. Watch for notices on upcoming webcasts and other new resources aimed at increasing awareness and action at CDC.gov or on the Surviving Sepsis Campaign website<http://www.survivingsepsis.org/Pages/default.aspx> and Facebook page. Newly posted on the SSC sepsis Facebook page is this article on Early Recognition and Management of Maternal Sepsis<http://nwhjournal.org/article/S1751-4851(16)00073-8/fulltext> and a not to be missed video<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xjpjn9t7Ivo> produced by the outstanding team at Sutter Health Sacramento.
