AB178. SOH24AB_224. A closed-loop audit of adherence to the sepsis management guidelines among adult patients suspected of sepsis presenting to the emergency department at Cork University Hospital

Background: Sepsis is defined as a dysregulated immune response to infection, leading to life-threatening organ dysfunction. It is a common, time-sensitive medical emergency, where positive outcomes depend on early recognition and intervention. Surviving sepsis campaign has set out guidelines for the management of sepsis which includes the Sepsis 6 treatment bundle. We measured adherence to the Health Service Executive (HSE) Clinical Guideline No. 6: sepsis resuscitation and management bundle tasks (Sepsis 6) by way of a closed-loop audit.
