Sepsis Performance Resources

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has finalized its proposal for including the SEP-1 quality measure in its Hospital Value-based Purchasing (VBP) Program.

Understanding the three primary reasons hospital sepsis programs don't achieve desired results is key to improving outcomes and achieving cost savings

Given the increasing competition, unprecedented change and complexity, competing priorities, and complex buying processes, healthcare leaders must focus on investments that deliver the most value to their patients, care teams, and organization.

Improved care can improve patient outcomes while reducing the profound financial impact of sepsis, including costs associated with excessive inpatient length of stay and compliance with financial penalties.

Conway Regional Medical Center taps Sepsis Monitor to help detect sepsis earlier and deliver consistent patient care; saves nearly $400k as part of a broader length of stay reduction effort.

By analyzing patient data in real-time and transforming it into actionable guidance, Sentri7 Sepsis Monitor empowers clinicians to rapidly respond to sepsis symptoms and risk to make the most effective clinical decisions at the right time.

Sentri7 Sepsis Monitor's highly accurate alerts and guidance are automatically delivered to the point of care to improve sepsis patient outcomes.

Real-time clinical surveillance goes beyond electronic health record (EHR) alerts to identify the early onset of patient deterioration or life-threatening events requiring care team intervention.

Dr. Itay Klaz, MD, MHCI and Karyn Wentz, MSN, RN, CPN review key lessons learned this year working with hospitals across the nation on improving sepsis performance.

Antimicrobial stewardship in sepsis patients is key, a multi-disciplinary approach is needed for balanced antibiotic use

As one of the most expensive medical conditions in the country, the financial cost to U.S. health care for sepsis is estimated at a staggering 33 billion dollars per year and rising and sepsis remains the leading cause of hospital mortality
