IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON PATIENTS HOSPITALIZED WITH SEPSIS THAT IS NOT DUE TO COVID-19: A RETROSPECTIVE COHORT STUDY
SHM Converge 2022
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has brought unprecedented changes to the way healthcare is delivered. While the impact of death and comorbidity due to infections with SARS-CoV-2 is a ubiquitous concern, it is unclear what effect this pandemic is having on hospitalized patients who are not infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We seek to estimate the […]

DOES HOSPITAL TEACHING STATUS AFFECT THE OUTCOME OF SEPSIS? AN OBSERVATIONAL STUDY USING THE NATIONWIDE INPATIENT SAMPLE
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Sepsis is a leading health care burden associated with high mortality in the United States. Poor outcomes associated with sepsis continue despite modifications in the sepsis care guidelines. Several factors influence the outcome of sepsis including patient characteristics, etiology of sepsis, and management in the appropriate intensive care unit setting. The aim of our […]

IDIOPATHIC PULMONARY FIBROSIS IN SEPSIS IS A PREDICTOR OF WORSE CLINICAL OUTCOMES AND INCREASE HEALTH CARE UTILIZATION COST
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Sepsis is one of the leading causes of admission to intensive care units (ICU), and it is one of the most expensive conditions treated in United State Hospitals accounting for $20.3 billion or 5.2% of total hospitalization cost. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is one of the leading causes of interstitial lung disease, with currently […]

DO CUSTOMIZED ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS-BASED SEPSIS ALERTS HELP CLINICIANS TREAT SUSPECTED SEPSIS MORE QUICKLY?
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Timely identification and treatment are integral to sepsis management in emergency department (ED) and inpatient settings. Increasingly, automated alerts embedded in electronic health records (EHRs) are used to expedite sepsis detection but may lead to false alarms and increased alarm fatigue. Additionally, recent data have demonstrated that the EPIC Sepsis Model—a proprietary sepsis alert […]

DISPARITIES AMONG CHIEF COMPLAINTS AND DIAGNOSES BETWEEN BLACK AND WHITE SEPSIS PATIENTS IN THE ICU
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Previous studies have identified racial differences in sepsis incidence and sepsis mortality. Some evidence points towards differential treatment and subsequent sepsis outcomes in Black versus White patients. However, it is unclear to what extent racial differences exist in presentation and subsequent interpretation of complaints in the early phase of sepsis. Using History and Physical […]

A RARE CASE OF SEPTIC CEREBRAL VENOUS THROMBOSIS CAUSED BY OTOMASTOIDITIS
SHM Converge 2022

A FOCUSED INTERVENTION TO IMPROVE SEPSIS CARE
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Sepsis, a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by dysregulated host responses to infection (1), remains a major healthcare problem, affecting millions of people worldwide. Out of 48.9 million cases in 2017, 11 million people died, contributing to almost 20% of global deaths (2). Septicemia/sepsis was the most expensive condition treated hospitals in 2016 (3). These […]
