Organ dysfunction and systemic inflammatory response syndrome Decision Flowcharts (panel A) and systemic inflammatory response syndrome criteria (panel B) that were the basis of the Cerner-based SIRS/OD logic. This logic ran real-time in the Cerner data-warehouse and alerted the providers as shown in Figure 2. aPTT = activated partial thromboplastin time; Bili = serum bilirubin levels; CAM-ICU = Confusion Assessment Method in Intensive Care Unit patients; HR = heart rate; INR = international normalized ratio; LA = serum lactic acid levels; MAP = mean arterial pressure; O2 sat = oxygen saturation by pulseoximetry; PltCt = blood platelet count; RR = respiratory rate; SBP = systolic blood pressure; Scr = serum creatinine level; SIRS/OD = systemic inflammatory response syndrome and organ dysfunction; U/O = urine output charter in electronic medical record; WBC = white blood cell count.

4. Figure 2
Schematic diagram of how the real-time electronic medical record-based alert would activate and inform the providers of severe sepsis and increased risk for death in their patients. Bili = serum bilirubin levels; CAM = Confusion Assessment Method; HR = heart rate; INR = international normalized ratio; MAP = mean arterial pressure; Plt Cnt = blood platelet count; RR = respiratory rate; SBP = systolic blood pressure; Scr = serum creatinine level; SIRS = systemic inflammatory response syndrome; WBC = white blood cell count.

5. Figure 3
Kaplan-Meier curves across the electronic medical records (EMR)-based real-time alert during the hospital stay. The systemic inflammatory response syndrome and organ dysfunction-based EMR alert (SIRS/OD alert) triggered in hospitalized patients (green) or did not trigger (blue). The probability of survival was lower for patients with SIRS/OD alert trigger during their hospital stay than for patients without such an alert (P < by the log-rank test).
