You are working as a nurse in the emergency department when you get a new patient. A 65 year old female with a chief complaint of altered mental status. Will you be able to use your nursing spidey-senses to figure out what is wrong with this patient before she crashes? Once you recognize signs of Sepsis, don't forget to "CALL IT"!

CALL IT = Cultures, Antibiotics, Lactate, Lactate, IV fluids, and Tissue perfusion
