Severe sepsis in pre-hospital emergency care: analysis of incidence, care, and outcome
Full text (free) – http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3622444/ Abstract Rationale Severe sepsis is common and highly morbid, yet the epidemiology of severe sepsis at the frontier of the health care system-pre-hospital emergency care-is unknown. Objectives We examined the epidemiology of pre-hospital severe sepsis among emergency medical services (EMS) encounters, relative to acute myocardial infarction and stroke. Methods Retrospective study […]
