Hi Sue,

Our hospitalist group is routinely using qSOFA in their documentation.  
However, I have not seen the ED physicians using either.

I was curious if any facilities have implemented SOFA and qSOFA? Our facility 
will be implementing both the SOFA and qSOFA in addition to continuing the use 
of SIRS. If these tools are being used, at what frequency is the assessment 
being completed? Also, is SOFA being initiated in the ED upon decision to admit?

Thank you, Sue
