SEPTIC-ED
Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to study systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) electronic health record (EHR) alerts for sepsis in the emergency department (ED). The main question it aims to answer is: do nurse alerts, prescribing clinician alerts, or both nurse and prescribing clinician alerts improve time to sepsis treatment for patients in the ED?
Nurses and prescribing clinicians will receive SIRS alerts based on the group to which the patient is randomly assigned. Researchers will compare four groups: no alerts, nurse alerts only, prescribing clinician alerts only, or both nurse and prescribing clinician alerts.

Detailed Description:
SEPTIC is a master protocol for two trials on distinct subpopulations: emergency department (ED) patients and inpatients. This protocol "ID: AAAU1002 - ED" describes the ED subpopulation study while "ID: AAAU1002 - IP" describes the inpatient subpopulation study.
Sepsis is a major cause of death both globally and in the United States. Early identification and treatment of sepsis are crucial for improving outcomes. International guidelines recommend hospital sepsis screening programs, which are commonly implemented in the electronic health record (EHR) as an interruptive screening alert based on systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) criteria. Despite widespread use, it is unknown whether these sepsis screening and alert tools improve the delivery of high-quality sepsis care. This study tests interruptive (pop-up) EHR alerts. Epic Systems, the company that produces the EHR, refers to these types of alerts as BestPractice Advisories (BPAs).
