    Abstract Sepsis is a life-threatening illness that affects millions of people worldwide. Early recognition and timely treatment are essential for decreasing mortality from sepsis. The Surviving Sepsis Campaign: International Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock 2021, the fifth iteration of the guidelines, was released in October 2021 and includes 93 recommendations for the management of sepsis. The evidence-based guidelines include recommendations and rationales for screening and early treatment, initial resuscitation, mean arterial pressure targets, admission to intensive care, management of infection, hemodynamic monitoring, ventilation, and additional therapies. A new section addresses long-term outcomes and goals of care. This article presents several recommendations, changes, and updates in the 2021 guidelines and highlights the important contributions nurses have in delivering timely and evidence-based care to patients with sepsis. Recommendations may be for or against an intervention, according to the evidence. Although many recommendations are unchanged, several new recommendations directly affect nursing care and may require specialized training (eg, venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation). The newest section, long-term outcomes and goals of care, is aimed at using available resources to provide care that is aligned with the patient and the patient's family through goals-of-care discussions and shared decision-making. Interventions aimed at improving recovery across the continuum of care should include attention to long-term outcomes. Nurses are essential in identifying patients with sepsis, administering and assessing response to treatment, supporting the patient and family, and limiting sequelae from sepsis. This article highlights the 2021 recommendations that influence nursing care for patients with sepsis.

    Abstract Sepsis guidelines, although creating a base to allow change in health care practitioner behavior, do not, in and of themselves, effect change. Change only comes with institution of a PI program, converting a core of key goals of guideline recommendations to quality indicators, and giving feedback on performance. These quality indicators are tracked before or during (recommended approach) initiation of hospital-wide education to evaluate baseline performance. When combining multispecialty and multidisciplinary champions in the ED, hospital wards, ICU, and hospital administrative leadership with timely performance feedback, case failure analysis, and re-education, an opportunity to succeed in decreasing mortality in severe sepsis can be achieved. Sepsis bundle indicators require updating as new evidence emerges and new guidelines are published.(30,31)

    Abstract Objectives: Sepsis is the most common and costly diagnosis in U.S.' hospitals. Despite quality improvement programs and heightened awareness, sepsis accounts for greater than 50% of all hospital deaths. A key modifier of outcomes is access to healthcare. The Affordable Care Act, passed in 2010, expanded access to health insurance coverage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in insurance coverage and outcomes in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock as a result of the full implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
    Design: This retrospective study uses data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project National Inpatient Sample during 2011-2016. Data were divided into two groups: 2011-2013 (pre Affordable Care Act) and 2014-2016 (post Affordable Care Act). Outcomes were in-hospital mortality, mortality rates based on insurance type, and hospital length of stay.
    Patients: Hospitalized adults between the ages 18 and 64.
    Interventions: None.
    Measurements and main results: A total of 361,323 severe sepsis or septic shock hospital discharges were included. Comparing pre-Affordable Care Act with post-Affordable Care Act, there was a 4.75% increase in medicaid coverage and a 1.91% decrease in the uninsured. Overall in-hospital mortality decreased from 22.90% pre-Affordable Care Act to 18.59% post-Affordable Care Act. Pre-Affordable Care Act uninsured patients had the highest mortality (25.68%). Patients with medicaid had the greatest reduction in mortality (5.71%) and length of stay (2.45 d). The mean (SD) length of stay pre Affordable Care Act was 13.92 (17.42) days, compared with 12.35 (15.76) days post Affordable Care Act. All results were statistically significant (p < 0.0001).
    Conclusions: In this cohort, there was an increase in insured patients with severe sepsis and septic shock post Affordable Care Act. Mortality and length of stay decreased in the post-Affordable Care Act period with the greatest reduction identified in the medicaid population. The improvement in outcomes could be attributed to advances in management, earlier presentation, patients being less severely ill and receiving treatment sooner.
