What is sepsis?
Sepsis chemicals released into bloodstream to fight an initial
infection trigger inflammatory responses throughout the body
SIRS = systemic inflammatory response syndrome
Generalized inflammation in organs
Begins as local infection
Progresses rapidly!
May lead to DEATH.

Risk factors
Include:
Active infection
Chronic illness (i.e. DM, CV disease)
Immunosuppressive diseases (i.e. HIV/AIDS)
LT use of immunosuppressive therapy (i.e. chemotherapy)
Poor nutrition
Debilitation
SIRS may result from: surgery, trauma, MI, pancreatitis, or burn injury
Most common in the very old and very young
Post-op pts.: 10x more likely to die from sepsis than MI or stroke

REMEMBER:
The ability to quickly recognize sepsis and begin therapies is what is going to drive
saving livesSo, if nurses are well-prepared, then patients with sepsis are recognized
early and the nurses can be the first to act.
In summary:
Sepsis is a leading COD in hospitalized patients worldwide.
Sepsis can be identified during routine observations by the RN.
All pts. with sepsis should have a management plan.
Recognize and respond to S/S sepsis QUICKLY!
Refer to your agencys P&P, as well as clinical pathways (CP).
