Key result
Nurse navigator-led sepsis recovery program reduces 30-day mortality or readmission ~20% vs usual care.
Why the study?
The study was designed to evaluate whether a nurse navigator-led, multicomponent Sepsis Transition And Recovery program improves 30-day mortality and readmission outcomes after sepsis hospitalization.
Does a nurse navigator-led multicomponent Sepsis Transition And Recovery program reduce the composite of mortality or hospital readmission at 30 days in high-risk patients hospitalized for suspected sepsis?
RCT (n=691)
Yes
Does a nurse navigator-led multicomponent Sepsis Transition And Recovery program reduce the composite of mortality or hospital readmission at 30 days in high-risk patients hospitalized for suspected sepsis?
Effect estimate: adjusted OR 0.80 (95% CI 0.64-0.98)
Absolute Event Rate: 28.7% vs 33.3%
A nurse navigator-led 30-day transition program significantly reduced the composite of 30-day mortality or hospital readmission in high-risk patients hospitalized for sepsis.
Supports implementation of nurse navigator-led sepsis transition programs; extends randomized evidence for post-discharge care coordination.

Taylor et al. (2021) conducted an RCT in Sepsis (n=691). Sepsis Transition And Recovery program vs. Usual care was evaluated on Composite of mortality or hospital readmission at 30 days (adjusted OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.64-0.98). A nurse navigator-led Sepsis Transition And Recovery program reduced 30-day mortality or readmission compared with usual care (28.7% vs 33.3%; adjusted OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.64-0.98).
