Learning Objectives Classify epidemiology of sepsis syndrome and differentiate between the different forms of sepsis syndromes (simple, severe and septic shock).
Integrate best evidence practices, clinical expertise and diagnostic test results for early identification and optimal management of septic states using evidence-based guidelines and clinical decision support tools (eg. ordersets, best practice alerts etc.) Demonstrate specific best practice strategies such as fluid resuscitation, early identification with laboratory markers and screening and transfer of patient to higher care with sepsis. Describe priority actions for establishing and implementing early goal directed therapies for the septic patients along the continuum of care. Develop and apply communication skills related to identification and management of sepsis when working among healthcare teams.
