Sepsis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Assessment of a Proposed Microbiological Alert and Its Impact on a Sepsis Campaign
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the ability of health-care professionals in addressing sepsis, and the impact of a telephone call upon receival of blood cultures in the clinical microbiology department, from a clinical microbiologist, in the early management of sepsis.
Sepsis is one of the major challenges of modern medicine. It is an important health problem
with a high incidence, morbidity and mortality that affects population worldwide. Without an
early recognition and a prompt management, patients can develop more severe stages of the
disease and even death. An appropriate and aggressive management can significantly improve
outcomes. Thus, it is necessary to develop early warning systems of sepsis in the hospital.
In recent years, several campaigns and guidelines have been developed to help health care
professionals in the management of sepsis. However, these have mainly focused on management
protocols for severe sepsis and septic shock in intensive care units or emergency
departments. To the best of the investigators knowledge, none of these have examined in
depth either the impact of a sepsis alert system in general wards, nor the impact of a
telephone call from a specialist in Clinical Microbiology, upon blood culture request, in
the early recognition of sepsis.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the ability of health-care professionals in
addressing sepsis, and the impact of a telephone call upon receival of blood cultures in the
clinical microbiology department, from a clinical microbiologist, in the early management of
sepsis.
For this, the investigators performed a prospective study based on telephone calls followed
by a phone interview to physicians and nurses in charge of patients whose blood cultures had
just been received at the clinical microbiology department in a tertiary hospital.
