Sepsis is a life-threatening response to infection, every year, more than 18,000 Australians suffer from sepsis.
This course includes a variety of learning mediums focused on clinical cases, coronial investigations and panel discussion around the latest science on sepsis management.
Sepsis has a global impact on morbidity and mortality, it is the final common pathway to death from most infectious diseases worldwide, including COVID-19.
Sepsis accounts for around 22% of all admissions to Australian ICUs, with mortality around 15%. Survivors have a reduction in life years by around 15 years and are often burdened with life-changing complications like multiple limb amputations.
The ability to recognise the early signs of sepsis and implement evidenced based treatment to support the patient’s response to infection is fundamental to surviving sepsis.
