Do not open attachments or click on links if you do not recognize the sender. ________________________________ Hello, Our hospital has very few emergency department beds that weigh patients. We are struggling to obtain accurate weights to calculate 30ml/kg fluids for SEP-1. How are other hospitals accurately obtaining patient weight in the ED? Or is a set amount of fluid given to patients? Thanks in advance for your feedback!
