Sepsis 6 Manager

Designed to aid clinical decision making in potentially septic patients.

This App is designed for use as part of the Scottish Patient Safety Programme, and uses the Sepsis Six developed from the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines by the UK Sepsis Trust. If a patient has suspected infection and a SIRS of 2 or more, all elements of the Sepsis Six should be completed, unless it becomes very clear that the SIRS response is due to something other than sepsis, or a senior doctor decides that the Sepsis Six is inappropriate.

- Bedside countdown timer to ensure time critical Sepsis Six completed in minimal time.

- Built-in SEWS & SIRS calculators with instant scoring on same screen.

- Manage multiple episodes concurrently.

- Records all actions in real time.

- Allows recording of who managed the patient when Sepsis 6 completed.

- Send reports of completed episodes via email or sftp upload.

Developed by David Rendall and Grant Franklin (consultant at NHS Highland Raigmore Hospital) with part funding from NES.

The developers of the app accept no liability for use of the app in a clinical environment. It is expected that any organisation would fully test the app before using it in a live ward environment. Please report any bugs you find - we will endeavour to fix them as soon as possible.
