SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables rapid sepsis risk assessment by aggregating vitals and laboratory data to compute qSOFA, SOFA, and SIRS scores, guiding early recognition and action.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sepsis risk scoring: Compute qSOFA, SIRS, and SOFA scores from patient observations, labs, and clinical data to identify organ dysfunction.
  • Bundle readiness assessment: Evaluate hour-1 bundle elements such as lactate, cultures, antibiotics, fluids, and vasopressors; generate a ClinicalImpression summary.
  • Use Case: A clinician requests a sepsis screening for a febrile, hypotensive patient; the tool fetches data from FHIR resources and returns risk stratification and recommended actions.

Quick Start

Prompt the system to run a sepsis screen for a patient by pulling the latest vitals and labs and calculating qSOFA, SIRS, and SOFA scores.

FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate qSOFA, SOFA, and SIRS scores from FHIR resources for sepsis screening?

You can perform sepsis risk screening by prompting the system to pull the latest vitals and labs from FHIR Patient, Observation, Condition, MedicationRequest, and Procedure resources. The tool calculates qSOFA, SOFA, and SIRS scores and outputs a ClinicalImpression with recommended actions.

What is the hour-1 bundle assessment for sepsis and how does it work?

The hour-1 bundle assessment evaluates sepsis treatment readiness by checking lactate, cultures, antibiotics, fluids, and vasopressors against patient FHIR data. It generates a ClinicalImpression summary to guide early recognition and action in ED, ICU, and ward workflows.

Can I use clinical decision support tools for sepsis in ICU and ward workflows?

Yes, sepsis risk screening applies to ED, ICU, and ward workflows for suspected infection with potential organ dysfunction. The tool fetches patient observations and labs from FHIR resources to compute qSOFA, SOFA, and SIRS scores for rapid bedside assessment.

Do I need specific FHIR resources to run a sepsis screen?

Yes, sepsis screening requires FHIR resources including Patient, Observation, Condition, MedicationRequest, and Procedure, along with references to sepsis scoring tables. These resources provide the vitals and laboratory data necessary to compute qSOFA, SOFA, and SIRS scores.

What's the best way to automate sepsis risk scoring from patient observations and labs?

Automating sepsis risk scoring involves prompting the system to fetch the latest vitals and labs from FHIR resources and calculate qSOFA, SIRS, and SOFA scores. This identifies organ dysfunction and generates a ClinicalImpression summary with hour-1 bundle elements.
