Is there any clarification for not giving the fluid bolus amount?  we still 
have docs that are resistant to CHF/renal patients getting a large bolus.

From my understanding, they?ve changed the algorithm a bit.
There are 3 questions to assess the need for crystalloid fluids.
If you answer yes to any of these, you move on to answer the crystalloid 
questions.
If you answer no to all of them, you are finished abstracting.
The questions are initial hypotension, lactate >/= 4, or physician/APN/PA 
documentation of septic shock.
Any of these three instances, when coupled with severe sepsis, require 
crystalloid fluids.

My abstractor''s and I are struggling with the new element, "initial 
hypotension".Technically this question will only apply to those patients 
needing the 30ml/kg?Because just being in severe sepsis doesn't require the 
30ml/kg.Comments appreciated in advance.

Please see below some retrospective comparisons regarding Emergency Department 
Triage assessments in concerns to qSOFA and SIRS criteria (August 2015- June 
2016). These values are only in consideration of Triage for q SOFA and SIRS for 
patients who are retrospectively clearly identified as having either severe 
sepsis or septic shock. I would not be able to comment on specificity or 
sensitivity in the larger undifferentiated ED patient population at triage.
TRIAGE ED qSOFA (Hypotension SBP< 100 mmHg; Respiratory Rate >/ = 22 breath/ 
min; Mental status changes)


qSOFA 0 or 1 at Triage

qSOFA 2 or 3 at Triage

All Patients

260/382 (68%)

122/382 (32 %)

Severe Sepsis Patients

150/192 (78%)

42/192 (22 %)

Septic Shock patients

110/190 (58 %)

80/190 (42 %)




The above data for our ED would mean, that if we would do a qSOFA assessment 
only once at triage and would base further clinical decisions on this, we may 
miss 58 - 78 % of patients with severe sepsis or septic shock. However qSOFA is 
not intended as singular assessment !
But I agree with what was said: it does not provide a sensitive initial 
screening assessment tool for the ED setting.
Especially the assessment of mental status changes in the ED setting appears to 
be difficult particular in patients who are new to the ED, have no family or on 
certain medications. The GCS is often normal even when other mental alterations 
may be present but not documented not even recognized in the ED setting! I can 
see that in the ICU setting it may be easier to recognize mental status changes 
in patients which are known to the treatment teams. This is often not possible 
in the ED!
TRIAGE ED SIRS (HR > 90 bpm, RR >/=20, Temp <36 C or > 38 C, WBC <4 or > 12 or 
bandemia >10)


0 or 1 SIRS

2 or more SIRS

All Patients

48/382 (13 %)

334/382 (87 %)

Severe Sepsis Patients

27/192 (14 %)

165/192 (86 %)

Septic Shock Patients

21/190 (11 %)

169/190 (89 %)


When we use TRIAGE SIRS criteria on the same patients who were assessed with 
qSOFA in the ED, and which have been later by chart review confirmed to have 
severe sepsis or septic shock, we are less likely to underestimate the 
potential risk of sepsis in these patients.

My five cents: The qSOFA may be a tool for the continued ICU screening for 
septic patients. It may be not such a good tool in the ED triage setting.  
>From our observational data it appears to me that SIRS criteria do exactly 
what Dr Bone had in mind: Identify patients with potential sepsis EARLY. SIRS 
criteria are not bulled proof, but they currently appear at ED triage the 
better initial tool to use to use when screening for patients at risk for 
severe sepsis or septic shock! Hopefully we will have further data soon to have 
a more prospective validation of qSOFA as a screening tool for sepsis in the ED!
Maybe qSOFA performs better in the ICU!? Anyone what to share their data?

Kathryn,
I have to agree on the need for further validation with the potentially septic 
patient.
As a sepsis coordinator, I am keeping track of the qSOFA score on patients with 
the potential for sepsis as they are being transferred into either our 
intermediate care units or critical care units.
Not a consistent parameter to date.
I, too, would like to do a more formal research study to validate before 
implementation.

Subject: Re: [Sepsis Groups] SIRS+organ dysfunction vs. qSOFA/SOFA

I have some concerns with the using the qSOFA to determine necessity for 
further screening.  Since 2006, I have worked with over 15 hospitals in 
California and Washington to implement screening, and although I never 
collected any formal data regarding this, it is my stong impression that in the 
younger, generally healthier population who get septic, change in mental status 
and decreased blood pressure are more often later signs.  The younger person 
usually has a greater ability to compensate, so these signs don't show up until 
later in the septic process and we would miss the opportunity for early 
recognition that has been proven to reduce mortality.

I strongly feel that this tool needs to be validated concurrently in the 
inpatient and outpatient area clinical area before it is use is recommended as 
the best tool.
