What if your hospital knew with 98% accuracy whether a patient arrived with or would acquire sepsis within your facility? Intermedix Condition Awareness is a site-specific decision support technology that accelerates sepsis intervention by continuously learning from the dynamic nature of your facility and practitioners.

The cost of the sepsis epidemic is $24 billion annually and growing—with each case costing health systems between $32,000 and $88,000. Additionally, sepsis patients stay in the hospital 75 percent longer than other patients – impacting the ability for hospitals to move patients out of the emergency department and into hospital beds. By deploying Condition Awareness for Sepsis, hospitals can reduce costs associated with more intense sepsis therapies and treatments. Our clients have been able to reduce costs to as low as $3,000 per case.
Sepsis survival rates depend primarily on early detection and treatment–every hour of treatment delay increases mortality by 7.6 percent. By assessing the patient risk at the point of admission, the Intermedix Condition Awareness for Sepsis improves patient outcomes by providing clinicians with more treatment time–ultimately leading to significantly decreased sepsis-related mortality.
