Clinical Resources
Older Sepsis survivors are three times more likely to notice a decline in their cognitive abilities, making it difficult to return to their previous lifestyles and resulting in an increased likelihood of hospital readmissions. In fact, Sepsis is one of the leading causes of readmissions. For every 100 Medicare patients admitted to a hospital within a 30-day period, 21.3% were admitted because of Sepsis.
