[Evaluation models for therapy planning/standardization exemplified by infection]. / Evaluationsmodelle zur Therapieplanung/Standardisierung am Beispiel der Sepsis.

ABSTRACT

Models of evaluation in therapeutic management pathways (practice guidelines, clinical algorithms) are demanded today, both by public health research and health policy. However, practical achievements are lacking. To overcome this controversy, the Lucerne Study Group on Sepsis Research was founded to develop guidelines in accordance with a series of official groups. It was shown that there was no agreement between the providers and the daily users. However, every surgeon has a firm, personal view about sepsis.
