New research paper into diagnostic tools for sepsis

Sepsis Research FEAT is delighted to report publication this month of research by Dr Meghan Bateson and her team.

Their paper ‘Research into performance of bedside tools for predicting infection-related mortality and administrative data for sepsis surveillance’ looks at diagnostic coding for sepsis as a predictor of mortality and how variations in coding can affect identification of sepsis cases.

Dr Bateson was a recipient of one of the charity’s original FEATures awards – introduced soon after the charity’s foundation to encourage and promote new research into sepsis . We are delighted that her study has now come to fruition and look forward to seeing its impact on this important area of sepsis medicine.
