Summary

Sepsis is a common syndrome resulting from a dysregulated response to infection. The timing of antibiotic initiation is an important determinant of outcomes for patients presenting to the emergency department with sepsis. The potential effect of care reorganization on very early care for sepsis is unknown. This study will investigate whether multidisciplinary coordination of the initial patient evaluation in the emergency department influences door-to-antibiotic time for septic patients.
