Due to sepsis the complication increases up to organ dysfunction. Sepsis 6 care bundle is a bundle of 6 necessary steps through which one can take out of danger and save the life of a severe sepsis patient.
Objective: To determine the efficacy of sepsis 6 care bundle in reducing maternal morbidity and mortality due to infectious cause in women admitted in High Dependency Area (HDA).
Material and Methods:
Setting: Descriptive, observational study in HDA, MCH, PIMS.
Duration: All obstetric patients admitted in high dependency area during the study period of January 2019 to March 2019. Confirmed sepsis cases from all 265 patients were screened. A self-designed data collection Performa was used to collect the necessary information. Diagnosed sever sepsis patients and sepsis shock patients were transferred to medical and surgical intensive care units.
Results: 60 diagnosed sepsis patients were separated after screening 265 patients admitted in HAD, MCH center PIMS. Out of 60 patients 15 with severe sepsis and 3 cases were diagnosed with sepsis shocks. The efficacy of sepsis 6 care bundles was not less than 46% with p value 0.039.
