  10. Compliance with Sepsis 6 Percentage of patients with Sepsis Six performed within 1 hour of time zero

  11. 2012: 2 + hrs 2013: < 30 mins Diagnosis Delay

  12. Balancing measure: Are all Patients with a SIRS of 2 and above captured? Spot checks on all the wards are done monthly on one day . The spot check includes checking all patients SIRS chart on all the wards for a reading of ≥ 2 using the headings. 44 notes were inspected on 18th April 2012. 3 patients had a SIRS of 2. 2 received Sepsis Six. 1 did not enter into the programme.

  13. Our Successes Patients are increasingly receiving evidence based treatment for sepsis Patients are receiving timely management We have a committed driven team We have increased awareness of the sepsis six interventions We have achieved a better understanding of the interconnection between the process and outcomes of the interventions We have achieved meaningful real time data collection Have successfully used the model for improvement and PDSA methodology Well received at ‘Grand Round’

  14. Our Challenges AUDIT Time resources and capacity The early recognition of sepsis New FY1 every 4 months (+ Rotating Shifts (wards/HAN/Day/ night)) Nursing teams relying on “bank staff” frequently Hospital wide education The compliance with the use of the sticker for all patients with a SIRS of 2 Highlighting sepsis as a medical emergency Concern with diagnostic accuracy obscures the early recognition of Sepsis Maintaining momentum Keep the focus of the model for improvement Achieving standardisation and sustainability as the project develops

  15. Forward Planning: Create a structured monthly feedback on all wards. Create a Sepsis Pathway. Increase awareness in the middle grade doctors. Incorporate the Maternity Units/ McQIC workstream. Review progress and continue to have local core group meetings every 2 weeks. Improve the data collection sheet (PDSA). Learn from mortality reviews.
