SCCM Resource Library-Engaging Healthcare Leaders in Sepsis Prevention

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The webcast discussed the importance of engaging healthcare leaders in sepsis prevention. The presenters emphasized the financial burden of sepsis and the need for leaders to understand the value of sepsis care. They recommended presenting data on the burden of sepsis specific to the institution and highlighting the potential financial implications, such as reputation, patient satisfaction, resource utilization, and readmissions. The presenters also emphasized the importance of engaging leaders in order to improve patient outcomes, such as reducing mortality and complications, and providing better quality of life after sepsis. They suggested developing a business plan that aligns with the institution's strategic objectives and includes input from a multidisciplinary team. They also discussed the use of technology, such as early warning systems and artificial intelligence, to aid in sepsis care and data collection. However, they cautioned that these technologies are still evolving and must be implemented carefully to ensure they improve patient care and outcomes. The presenters acknowledged the challenges of engaging clinicians in following best practice recommendations and using order sets, and suggested using data, cultural change, and education to overcome barriers and promote standardized approaches to sepsis care. In conclusion, engaging healthcare leaders in sepsis prevention is crucial for improving patient outcomes and reducing the financial burden of sepsis. This can be achieved through data-driven presentations, aligning with institutional objectives, and utilizing technology where appropriate.
