Epidemiology of Severe Sepsis Around the World
Abstract
Severe sepsis is an ongoing challenge for clinicians and health-care administrators mainly because is associated with a high incidence, mortality rate and costs. In recent years, several epidemiological studies about the incidence of sepsis have come out in different and prestigious journals. However, it is not advisable to draw direct conclusions from those studies considering methodological flaws or even different approaches. Hence, we have to be familiar with those obstacles and know how to overcome them. This review paper highlights the methods which have been used in these studies and depicts the results of occurrence rate or incidence of sepsis in countries and in intensive care units.

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.
