| Abstract | ||
| Background: In intensive care unit (ICU), sepsis is a main cause of death for the survival of patient with this condition, early identification and management is necessary. Aim of this study was to investigate the effect of evidence based sepsis care bundle on patient outcome in medical intensive care unit. Method: Quasi-experimental research strategy was used in this study the sample was included 100 adult critically ill patients taken from medical intensive care in Aswan University Hospital. Tool (I): Patient assessment sheet was used for collecting data, which included two parts: bio-demographic data and medical data, Tool (II): evidence based sepsis care bundle, to control mortality frequency and diminished length of stay within medical ICU. Results: ICU stay, the half of the usual care group stayed one week and majority (46%) of the bundle care group stayed less than one week. As regarding mortality rate was lowered than the control group with a substantial variation (P = 0.021). Conclusion: implementation of the evidence-based sepsis care bundle to all critically ill sepsis patients can promote optimal patient outcome. Recommendation: must be reduplication this study in a large probability sample in the different critical care setting area. | ||
