AIM to Improve: The Importance of Patient Safety Bundles for Treating Sepsis in Obstetrical Care

Patient safety bundles offer standardized approaches for delivering well-established, evidence-based practice, which can be espeically vital for treating sepsis in obstetrical care. Because sepsis is a leading cause of preventable pregnancy-related deaths in the U.S., healthcare providers need to know how to recognize and prevent obstetric sepsis as well as how to respond and treat patients with obstetric sepsis according to relevant patient safety bundles. This webinar, hosted by Sepsis Alliance, will provide information on Alliance for Innovation in Maternal Health (AIM) patient safety bundles, the importance of a sepsis-specific bundle, and goals for implementation of the forthcoming Sepsis in Obstetrical Care bundle.
