Sepsis: First Response - Educational Video
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2024
- As many as 87% of sepsis cases originate in the patient’s community. Sepsis is the body’s life-threatening response to an infection that takes 270,000 lives a year in the United States alone. EMS are often the first medical providers to reach these cases.
In fact, EMS transports as many as 60% of patients with severe sepsis arriving at the emergency department, yet many EMS are unaware of sepsis or what they should do if they suspect it.
In response, Sepsis Alliance created Sepsis: First Response, an education video to prepare pre-hospital care providers to better identify and treat sepsis cases they encounter in the field. This video offers pre-hospital providers with the tools to rapidly identify sepsis, begin treatment, and effectively coordinate with the emergency department and in-hospital colleagues.
Sepsis: First Response has been endorsed by the National Association of EMS Physicians, the National Association of EMS Educators and the New England Center for Rescue and Emergency Medicine.

So good! I had a hip sepsis after pain shots that were given in the groin area! I had none of the symptoms you have listed! My left leg had excruciating pain, no redness no swelling... just the terrible pain! 5 days after the pain shots I took a nap in the afternoon and when I awoke I could not move my left leg and could not get out of bed! Long story short my daughter was called and she in turn called 911! Was taken to a major hospital, evaluated and they said they could not find anything wrong with me so they were going to discharge me! My daughter reached out and barely touched my leg and I screamed in pain! The ones doing the evaluation ran out and soon a figure in black scrubs appeared and said to me, “OK we are going to start over...I think you have an infection!” Afterwards things moved fast. Was taken for aspiration! to identify the bacteria and was rushed into surgery! ( did a debriding I think that’s what it is called) My left leg hurts terribly still although the surgical scar is near my hip! The Trauma surgeon placed antibiotics in the wound and left it open until the bacteria was identified. Then was on a vacuum pump and specific antibiotics for several days via IV, then went home with a PICC line and received a couple of weeks of antibiotics at my daughter’s home through PICC line. I am so interested in these videos because I had none of the symptoms you describe! Just terrible terrible pain! I thought I was going to die; the Trauma Surgeon said, “You could well have; you almost waited too late! I hope someone will respond as my situation was not typical!!
I am a 5 year survivor after sepsis with multiple organ failure ~ after heart surgery to replace my mitral & aortic valves damaged from strep as a teen.. I live with post sepsis syndrome & diabetes / thyroid issues and muscle loss.. Live is the key word.. Luckily my Drs. were quick to act.. I only had a 2% chance of survival.. My family went through hell & back.. I was in a coma on a ventilator & dialysis luckily I was unaware of what was happening.. I was so happy to see this video and thankful that people are being educated about the signs & symptoms & made aware of just how deadly & life threatening sepsis is... Thanks to the Paramedics & EMTs 💜 who save lives daily..!!
Congratulations on your recovery!
I wish you a long and healthy life!
My dad died from sepesis so this is very informative to me and we need to pay attenison to it
Sorry for your loss
I'm a multiple-Sepsis survivor. This is a good video to help people understand what is Sepsis, and how grave it is. Thanks!
So happy To hear you’re a survivor. I’m in hospital right now watching these videos cos I currently have sepsis which now I’ve have toes and some foot
Amputated should hopefully
Go with antibiotics xxx
Why isn't there a routine test for sepsis, one has to wonder! It's odd stuff, considering how many people's lives are snuffed out or altered forever by this scourge; surely a routine test/blood culture will remove human error in diagnosis?
@@macclift9956 sepsis is diagnosed quickly, but the treatment takes a lot of time. sepsis is treated by identifying the bacteria responsible for the sepsis, which takes days
@@ametamaa I got sepsis from a tooth infection on an old root canal and was in the hospital 6 days on intravenous antibiotics - I found it early my holistic dentist recommended I go straight to the emergency room right after the extraction of that tooth that instruction saved my life
@@ametamaa not true. They can identify the type of bacteria with a blood test and they usually do it quickly; Within an hour they will start you on the correct antibiotic.
this is an extremely excellent educational materials for assessment in Sepsis. Highly recommended to students, Nurses and Medical students. You explained very well and. I could listen to you over and over again. Your voice is soothing, Your audience will listen and pay attention to u 100%. Over all you are an amazing educator, keep doing more.

THIS IS AN
I had an experience here in Brazil where people at front line doesn’t know how to identify sepse even that patient had contracted infection inside hospital because poor higiene….. a deadly catch 22 where health care workers are the death hands instead of saving people.
Very informative. Thank you for this video.
Most elderly patients in the hospital with a catheter get UTI’s and end up with sepsis.
While walking my dog one morning I tripped on some broken sidewalk and fell on my hands and knees. The only wounds were some pin sized ones on both heels of my hands and my knees hurt. However as the day progressed my knees started hurting more than I thought they should so I went to the InstaCare at the hospital. They took x-rays and found no broken bones so the doctor sent me home. Two days later I was back again with more pain. Again x-rays found nothing and exam found nothing. Sent home. The next day I went back again because the pain was even worse and the doctor came out and sent me to the ER. The ER checked me out sent me home with a prescription for antibiotics. The next day I was back again, now with a fever. My left leg was so hot that the nurses soaked towels in a bowl of ice water and laid them on the leg, which felt great but when they took the towels off they commented on how hot the towels had gotten. I was finally checked into the hospital. If my leg touched anything it felt like broken glass being ground into a wound. I hadn't been sleeping because of the pain so they gave me morphine, which let me nap for 20 minutes and did nothing else. Motrin helped the most. The nurse said they were pumping twice the normal amount of IV solution to help flush the bacteria out of my system. They came by several times day and night to check my blood. I only found out after i'd gotten home 5 days later and so bored I read my release papers that I'd had cellulitis and something called Sepsis. I didn't know what that was so I looked it up and was in for a big surprise. Totalling up the percentages I found I was really lucky to leave the hospital in a wheelchair and not a body bag. I could have lost my leg, it did turn black at one point but it turned out to be from blood pooling when they PT had me get out of bed and walking a few yards and then sitting in a chair for a few minutes. As soon as I got back into bed the normal coloring slowly came back. I was in the worst pain of my life for almost 2 months. Every time I had to get out of bed the pain was so bad I screamed uncontrollably. Over the 4 years since my health has declined and I wonder if it's from that sepsis?
excellent,excellent,excellent presentation!
absolutely!
Excellent video! 🇬🇧
This is very helpful and encouraging and educational thank for sharing
Very informative . Thank u
great video !!
Amazing video👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
My father died from sepsis. They thought it was just weakness in his knees.
Just got out the hospital with this! EMS transferred me to a larger hospital to intensive care unit ! The doctor comes walking in asking ME WHY I was transferred to the ICU and not a regular room !!!! I'm in septic shock with a blood pressure that had got low as 65\32! But he wanted to know why the "idiot" from the small hospital sent me there !🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Thank you for sharing your sepsis experience, we are so sorry to hear what you've gone through. If you are looking for any additional information about sepsis or you are interested in joining the free sepsis survivor online community, please visit: www.sepsis.org/sepsis-alliance-resources/.
A little over two years ago, I almost died from septic shock as a result of toxic mega colon. The day it happened I knew something was wrong so my mom took me to one of those urgent care clinics and when the doctor on duty couldn’t get a blood pressure reading he insisted on sending me to the emergency room immediately!
I'm dying from sepsis because the antibiotics didn't work. I have had sepsis for over 3 months I pray by some miracle I will survive. I'm transitioning to death. Goodbye now.
Hello How are you?
Oh no 😢
I wish I had known
SEPSIS IS ALSO IN MANY HOSPITALS NOT JUST AT HOME MY MOTHER WAS ALL IN THE HOSPITALS
I was sent to the hospital last August because I had gone into sepsis from a really bad UTI. I live in a nursing home and they called an ambulance and sent me to the hospital. When I got to the hospital they called my husband and because I was so sick the doctor allowed him to put on a gown and mask and come back to see me. I don't remember any of this, but the doctor told my husband that they were admitting me to the ICU because I had sepsis and if they didn't treat it right away it could be fatal due to the fact that my immune system was so compromised! They allowed him to go upstairs with me but not to stay because they had to do a lot of things to me right away to help me get better!
You didn't have sepsis
@@johnkimball5872 what do you know ?
I got out of the hospital last night with it been in there for a few days then very very sick and I've just woken up I can't move to get my painkillers and antibiotics I literally am too weak to get up and get my medicine
I’m in hospital and have been in surgery this morning and lost all of my toes on right foot die to sepsis. Infection started in my heel. I had temperature, redness spreading and felt so poorly. I went ambulanced after waiting 4 hours for it and then stuck into a cubicle and left for 5 hours. In that space of time my foot and toes were black. No one even LOOKED at my foot for 4.5 hours. So them I’m rushed over to a vascular team at Southampton and into surgery to save my life. I’m now resting and dressing tomorrow when I have sounds checks and vac machine attached etc road to recovery in long xx.
amazing english care...I survived sepsis this summer...started being very poorly in the UK and flew back home to France where my life was saved (just about). I had never experienced pain like this, a total loss of control, an impossibility to express myself to flag up how sick I was...Just managed to tell my mum to ring for an ambulance because I was dying...and then I proceeded to starting to die :D all of it within 20 minutes!
@@zarathoustra6398 you didnt have sepsis. Like doctors say if you had sepsis you would be dead.
@@johnkimball5872 what do you know doctors did say i have sepsis d i was dieing
@@johnkimball5872 you didn’t diagnose her did you ?
Patients with Confusion or dementia patients with UTI’s und up with sepsis.
Isn't SIRS obsolete now? Isn't it SOFA and qSOFA now?
My Dad has Pneumonia & sepsis, he’s 88 and is in hospital 😢
I hope your Dad is better now? I had double pneumonia and sepsis. On life support with an induced coma (I'm guessing it was induced.) My kidneys and liver were shutting down. Sometime throughout this, I had an out of body, near death experience. It was a hellish one. Scary to boot. If I really didn't believe in the devil, I sure do now! Heck, I was even hallucinating and can remember coming out of the hallucinogenic episode! Strange feeling for sure. Anyway, I was in the hospital for 2.5-3 weeks. I was put on dialysis while in the hospital and had to continue when I got out. Luckily my creatinine and bunn levels got back to normal and I was released from having to do any dialysis! So, I'm lucky to be alive! This experience was a twofold kinda loss as my twin brother passed away in March. Two months before our fifty first birthday. So, I was very lucky and glad we got to spend fifty years together. He passed in 2021 and I still struggle with the loss of my twin. I have to remind myself to try and be happy. For his sake.😊 Please wish your father well from me! Take care -Jody
God bless you!
@@lindaguida4074 is your Dad ok?
@@jodyljohnson8515 , yes
Nice vid but it hurts a lot to remember my mother was dead because of septic shock😥😥😥😥
I’m so sorry your mother didn’t make it. Hope you’re not hurting as much now. Godspeed.
Can you please contact me so I can tell my mom's story where sepsis lead to septic shock and complications lead to her death last May 26th? I don't want anyone else to die because of it. I don't want her death to be in vain and even though it'll be emotional for me to tell I feel ready to tell it.
We are so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom to sepsis. To submit her story to our Faces of Sepsis™ story collection, please visit FacesOfSepsis.org.
I thought I had sepsis but it's been 6 weeks so I would probably be dead by now
I believed I have sepsis, few years ago I acquired UTI my back is aching up to now.A few year ago I got tooth decay.
I visited a dental clinic and the dentist manged to extract it, She said the tooth is infected. So I believed these are the reasons I have sepsis up to now. A month ago I visited a government hospital I told the doctor about it.
So she told me to get blood test. And she said my blood is normal. I think the reason my blood is normal because I'm eating garlic to prevent this blood infection to go severe. Any professional doctors reading this please give me advice. What should I do next now?
I am a Nurse and it would be unprofessional for me to diagnose as that is the job of your health care provider and without seeing you, assessing your vital signs, and knowing your history it, is unsafe to offer an opinion. however, I can give you advice from someone who has read your message and is feeling worried about your health. It can be scary, can't it. As a nurse or a Doctor, it is essential that we not only do the necessary tests on a patient, but we must also educate and ensure that the patient is aware of what is being done, ask for your consent to do these things and give an explanation of the findings and outcomes. Remember that it is your right as a health consumer to understand what is going on in your health and be given tools in order for you to be in control of your health and wellbeing. If you are ever unsure ask the nurse or doctor to explain things you may not understand ok. f you are ever in doubt or anxious about your current health, go and see your current health provider. I am sorry no one has responded to you sooner.. Never be afraid to ask questions if you do not understand, no question is a silly question ok. if you are feeling unwell and worried go and ee your health provider
A doctor will say you dont have sepsis if you were septic you would be dead. That's a professional opinion I'm a doctor.
@@johnkimball5872 I thought you said in a earlier comment that you were dying from sepsis?
Man has sepsis and is basically lethargic on floor
FD:"Sir I need you to walk to our stretcher"
The good old firemans carry
P.S that man has some fucking amazing veins
i had it onces shi aint no joke
Is eating garlic or drinking garlic water will remove the bacteria in my blood?
garlic can have benifits yes, but be sure to not have too much :}
You don't have bacteria in your blood. Stop borrowing problems.
Don’t rely exclusively on garlic. Conventional medical treatment must also come into play.
