Sammanfattning
A national Swedish expert group has presented recommendations for sepsis risk stratification, aimed to be used on patients with suspected infections out of hospital. Based on general condition, physiological parameters, and risk factors, the patients are stratified, according to risk of ongoing or subsequent sepsis, to green light (low risk), yellow light (moderate to high risk), or red light (high risk). Initial patient management should be guided by risk group, i.e. patients with green light can in most cases return to their homes, whereas patients with red light should immediately be transferred to hospital.
