Sepsis guideline implementation: benefits, pitfalls and possible solutions
Open accessAbstract
Clinical practice guidelines are useful in improving quality of care and outcomes, reducing inappropriate variation in practice, promoting efficient use of resources, informing and empowering patients and informing public policy. However, difficulties arise when guidelines are poorly introduced into routine daily practice and, as a consequence, many patients do not receive the care intended or receive harmful or unnecessary care.

Reasons for low compliance with sepsis care include the lack of a gold standard for sepsis diagnosis and the difficulty of rapidly mobilizing resources needed to treat individuals suspected of having sepsis.
“The reasons for low compliance include the lack of a gold standard for sepsis diagnosis and the difficulty of rapidly mobilizing resources needed to treat individuals suspected of having sepsis [15,16].”
From Integrating a Machine Learning System Into Clinical Workflows: Qualitative Study (2020) · cites this paper as [15]
The 'Reasons for poor adherence' and 'Obstacles and solutions in implementation' sections identify failure to recognize sepsis and shortages of time, staff, and treatment resources as barriers to compliance (page numbers unavailable). They do not say that the lack of a gold standard for sepsis diagnosis is a reason for low compliance. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
