We have incorporated qSOFA in our floor screening tool. Our tool is set up as SIRS: yes/no, qSOFA yes/no, if yes to either they move to the next question: does the patient have infection or suspected infection. If yes to infection we have a nurse driven lactate order set. (The tool also includes organ dysfunction screening) ----- Original Message -----

However, I have not seen the ED physicians using either. Karla Cleveland BS RN Sepsis Coordinator Mercy Health Muskegon 1560 E.

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?
