Severe sepsis 3-hour bundle compliance and mortality

Nancy B Lynn et al. Am J Infect Control. 2018 Nov.

Abstract

Severe sepsis is a major cause of mortality among hospitalized patients. We tracked severe sepsis 3-hour bundle compliance and mortality over time. Those patients with severe sepsis who received the entire bundle had improved in-hospital survivability over those patients who did not receive the bundle.
