Court’s in Session: Paediatric Sepsis

Sepsis remains a leading cause of preventable deaths worldwide yet early recognition can dramatically improve outcomes. In children and infants, identifying sepsis is especially challenging. Clinical deterioration often occurs rapidly and late in the illness trajectory, making early warning signs easy to miss.

This interactive eLearning module is designed to develop your clinical reasoning skills and improve your confidence in recognising paediatric sepsis early. Through the review of a coronial investigation, you'll explore how critical red flags including repeat presentations and escalating parental concerns, can be overlooked; and how timely escalation can change outcomes.

Insights from clinical experts and an update of the paediatric sepsis guidelines are provided within the self-paced module.

This course is ideal for clinicians who want to strengtehen their ability to recognise and manage paediatric sepsis, as well as those intrested in learning from coronial investigations to improve patient safety and avoid preventable harm.
