ABSTRACT: Education in Sepsis: A Review for the Clinician of What Works, for Whom, and in What Circumstances
Sepsis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in both the general and obstetric populations. Concerns have been raised regarding some cases of substandard care in the management of the septic and there is a real need for continuing multidisciplinary medical education in the recognition and management of the pregnant patient experiencing sepsis. This review aims to summarize studies on medical education in sepsis to both inform clinicians working in obstetrics and gynaecology and to assist in planning educational programs.
