Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that is a leading cause of death in US hospitals and for which early aggressive care can improve survival. Despite decades of quality improvement initiatives and quality measure development, providing guideline-adherent care has proven difficult, especially in small and low-volume facilities. Telemedicine provides a promising strategy to provide clinical expertise at the bedside to improve screening and treatment and to standardize care. Telemedicine networks have focused on clinical monitoring of inpatient floors, critical care units, and emergency departments, and telemedicine-supplemented care may improve care and documentation for patients with sepsis. This chapter reviews critical elements to the design and operation of a telemedicine program focused on sepsis care, including staffing, quality improvement, and protocol development.
