This study is a prospective type 2 hybrid implementation-effectiveness trial to evaluate a sepsis diagnostic safety toolkit. The study team will use explanatory mixed methods to assess quantitative and qualitative metrics, including PRISM contextual factors and RE-AIM outcomes such as accuracy, adoption, adaptations, sustainability, and context.
The study team will conduct a pre/post-evaluation of the toolkit to measure effectiveness outcomes; and also will evaluate additional implementation outcomes using quantitative and qualitative approaches.
The study will consist of a 24 month pre-intervention period and a 24-month post-intervention period, capturing the same sepsis seasonality during both phases.
