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.
