Recognizing Sepsis Awareness Month 2023: Every Second Counts

Active Learning (Blog)

09/12/23 – Recognizing Sepsis Awareness Month 2023: Every Second Counts

September is Sepsis Awareness Month, a critical period for shedding light on a condition that remains the leading cause of hospital deaths in the United States. Initiated by the Sepsis Alliance in 2011, this annual awareness campaign brings together individuals, healthcare professionals across various disciplines, and organizations large and small to amplify the urgency of understanding and combating sepsis.

The Staggering Statistics

Sepsis is a severe and often fatal response to infection, affecting a staggering 1.7 million people and causing the death of 350,000 adults in the U.S. each year. What’s more alarming is that research indicates up to 80% of sepsis-related deaths could potentially be prevented with swift diagnosis and treatment. For every hour that treatment is delayed, the risk of mortality skyrockets by approximately 8%. These numbers underline the imperative nature of education and awareness about sepsis.

At the Core of Bayesian Health’s Mission

Early detection and timely intervention are not just statistical factors; they lie at the very heart of Bayesian Health’s mission. Our commitment to driving efficacy in clinical AI directly aligns with the pressing need for rapid evaluation and treatment of sepsis. By developing tools that empower healthcare providers to diagnose sepsis early, we’re not just innovating; we’re striving to save lives.

Act Now: Resources for Awareness

Our team at Bayesian Health advocates for effective and immediate action to raise sepsis awareness. We strongly recommend taking advantage of the following resources to escalate public understanding of sepsis in your community:

  • Sepsis Alliance – Sepsis Awareness Month Toolkit: This comprehensive guide provides in-depth information and ideas for promoting awareness. Download it here.
  • The National Association of County Health Officials: They offer a variety of materials and educational pieces on how you can get ahead of sepsis. Visit their website for more information.

Awareness is the first step towards a significant impact. This Sepsis Awareness Month, let’s unite to disseminate knowledge, drive timely interventions, and ultimately, save lives.

Spread the word, because when it comes to sepsis, every second counts.
