Hospital sepsis decision support program enrollment study
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests a computer system meant to help doctors recognize and manage sepsis (a serious body-wide response to infection) when people come to the emergency department or are admitted to the hospital. If you’re evaluated in a hospital setting for possible sepsis, you may be included to help improve care decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be admitted to the hospital or come to the Emergency Department
- Be evaluated in a hospital setting (not urgent care or outpatient clinic)
- There are no limits based on age, race, or ethnicity
- You can be included regardless of other background factors

This study collects information from patients with sepsis (a serious infection that affects the whole body) who come to the emergency department. The goal is to better understand and improve care for people with this condition.
This study tests a new computer program that helps doctors find serious infections (sepsis and bacteremia) earlier in ICU patients. If you join, the program will analyze your health data to see if it can better predict these infections, which could help you get faster treatment.
This study looks at whether automatically flagging a sepsis risk score in the electronic health record and having a care team respond with structured steps helps treat sepsis earlier. If you qualify, everything is done through your usual care — you won't have extra visits or be contacted by the research team.
This study aims to improve how quickly patients with sepsis (a life-threatening reaction to infection) receive the right treatment in the hospital. By following a specific checklist, they hope to reduce harm and improve outcomes for patients with this condition.
This study tracks how doctors treat septic shock in the ICU to learn what works best. If you have septic shock, joining this study helps researchers understand which treatments are most effective, and you'll get the same care you would anyway.
This trial tests a new early warning system (SEPSys and RESCUE scores) to spot sepsis before it gets serious. If you're an adult in a University of Maryland hospital without sepsis, the system may help your doctors act faster.
