Can we reduce mortality in sepsis?
Considerable progress has been made over the last 2 decades in diagnosing and treating sepsis. Although the mortality rate is beginning to decline with the development of new therapeutic interventions, it still remains unacceptably high. Five such interventions are discussed in this review article to provide guidance for intensivists on the integration and implementation of new interventions in...
متن کاملThe Surviving Sepsis Campaign: raising awareness to reduce mortality
Sepsis affects 18 million people worldwide every year, and on average each case costs more than US$22 000 to treat. Despite this there is no consensus on the clinical definition of sepsis, and successful diagnosis and treatment is difficult. The Barcelona Declaration, issued by the Surviving Sepsis Campaign in October 2002, outlines a six-point plan to reduce the relative mortality of sepsis by...
متن کاملSepsis-induced immune dysfunction: can immune therapies reduce mortality?
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response induced by an infection, leading to organ dysfunction and mortality. Historically, sepsis-induced organ dysfunction and lethality were attributed to the interplay between inflammatory and antiinflammatory responses. With advances in intensive care management and goal-directed interventions, early sepsis mortality has diminished, only to surge later aft...
متن کاملAn Experiment in Collaborative Development to Reduce Spreadsheet Errors
To study the extent to which group development can reduce spreadsheet errors, an experiment compared error rates in spreadsheet development by subjects working alone (monads) and by subjects working in groups of three (triads). Impressively, triads made 78% fewer errors than monads. However, this was not as large a reduction as nominal group analysis suggests was possible. Members of triads wer...
متن کاملStrategies to Reduce Mortality from Bacterial Sepsis in Adults in Developing Countries
Sepsis is a progressive injurious process resulting from a systemic inflammatory response to infection [1]. In developed countries, sepsis is an important cause of mortality: in the United States alone, up to 750,000 people annually suffer from severe sepsis—mostly bacterial in aetiology—of whom 29% may die [2,3]. Unfortunately, data on bacterial sepsis in developing countries are notably lacki...
