Figure 1.
Alluvial diagram illustrating the final presence and source of infection for 812 emergency department patients who met Sepsis-3 criteria adjudicated by independent reviewers using structured medical record review. Block sizes are proportional to the number of patients with each infection status/source during each round of adjudication. “Streams” between initial abstraction and validation results depict patterns and proportions of interrater agreement and disagreement for each infection status/source. Abbreviation: GI, gastrointestinal.
