Sepsis Initiative (Second Phase)
Within the Sepsis Initial Evaluation PowerPlan there are 2 new orderables - see red box below
/

July 27, 2011

Checking one of these orders takes you to the sepsis documentation form

This is the physician documentation form. The “Reason Sepsis Treatment Not Indicated” box becomes required with a hard stop if the user selects the “Sepsis Treatment Not Indicated”. You must check one of the three options to turn off the alert.
/ Considering alternate diagnosis:
In IP: turns off the SIRs open chart alert for 36 hrs. No effect on the organ involvement open chart alert.
In ED: turns off the SIRs open chart alert for 24 hrs with no effect on the organ involvement open chart alert in the ED. It doesn’t turn off any alerts on the IP side.
Patient family request: turns off both alerts forever
Comfort care: turns off both alerts forever
/

Physician open chart alert

This alert includes information describing what triggers the alert.

New Order: “Initiate Planned Orders”
A new physician order “Initiate planned orders” will be added to notify the nurse that orders are planned and to indicate when they can be initiated.
This is a separate order, outside the power plan. If the nurse initiates the planned orders and alerts fire, or there are other questions, expect a call from the nurse. /
