Join the Sepsis Alliance for a special viewing party as they showcase all five modules of their brand-new program, Sepsis Alliance Presents: Sepsis Fundamentals.
Sepsis is still the leading cause of death in U.S. hospitals, and early recognition and treatment can make all the difference. That’s why sepsis education is more important than ever. Research shows that targeted training helps healthcare professionals recognize the signs of sepsis sooner and respond more effectively—ultimately saving lives.
Sepsis Fundamentals is a comprehensive, multi-part course created for nurses, sepsis coordinators and other healthcare professionals. It’s designed to build a strong foundation in essential sepsis knowledge and serves as a stepping stone to more advanced training.
Modules in the Program:
- Sepsis Epidemiology
- Sepsis Recognition
- Sepsis Diagnosis, Treatment, and Monitoring
- Sepsis Recovery
- Sepsis Quality Improvement and Patient Safety
At the end of the activity, the learner should be able to:
- Describe the epidemiology of sepsis, including its prevalence, risk factors, and impact on patient outcomes.
- Recognize the early signs and symptoms of sepsis across different patient populations using clinical assessment tools.
- Differentiate sepsis from other conditions by interpreting diagnostic criteria, laboratory findings, and clinical presentations.
- Implement evidence-based treatment protocols for sepsis management, including fluid resuscitation, antimicrobial therapy, and supportive care.
- Support patient recovery by identifying post-sepsis syndrome symptoms and recommending appropriate follow-up care and rehabilitation strategies.
- Evaluate strategies for sepsis quality improvement and patient safety, including protocol adherence, early warning systems, and multidisciplinary teamwork.
