Due to the popularity of the original webast, a second "Sepsis Redefined" webcast, from the Society of Critical Care Medicine, took place for those who were unable to attend. Moderated by Craig M. Coopersmith, MD, FACS, FCCM, this webcast features leading sepsis experts who discuss the recently published Third International Consensus Definitions for Septic and Septic Shock (Sepsis-3) and a related response that has been provided by the Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC).
Clifford S. Deutschman, MS, MD, FCCM, and Mitchell M. Levy, MD, MCCM, FCCP, explore such topics as the rationale for the new definitions of sepsis and septic shock, the quick Sepsis-Related Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) and how this definition might apply to bedside sepsis screening.
