The Epidemiology of Sepsis during Rapid Response Team Reviews in a Teaching Hospital [PDF]
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2015 In a three-month retrospective study, we assessed the proportion of rapid response team (RRT) calls associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and sepsis. We also documented the site of infection (whether it was community- or hospital-acquired), antibiotic modifications after the call and in-hospital outcomes. Amongst 358 RRT calls,

Hospital mortality predictive factors following Rapid Response Team activation [PDF]
Critical Care, 2014 The Rapid Response Team (RRT) represents an important advance in the management of deteriorating ward patients and is recommended as a patient safety measure. Most studies on RRT evaluate the effects of its implementation on rate reduction of cardiopulmonary arrest outside the ICU and hospital mortality, with limited information on the criteria for RRT
