Clinical Guidelines and Tools
The clinical practice guidelines for the management of sepsis, International Guidelines for Management of Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock: 2012, were updated by the Surviving Sepsis Campaign, which is a joint collaboration of the Society of Critical Care Medicine and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (read more about the Surviving Sepsis Campaign )
Based on these guidelines, the Surviving Sepsis Campaign partnered with the Institute for Healthcare Improvement to create Bundles to help frontline providers implement the guidelines.
