Active_comparator: Hour-1 Bundle

If the patient meets 2+ SIRS and chief complaint criteria, a second BPA may be triggered, which displays to the provider. The second alert identifies patients who progress to organ failure based on lab results, or who have a recorded instance of hypotension. When this alert appears, an automatic counter will begin and serve as our Sepsis Time Zero. The provider will receive sepsis order sets and guided to the Sepsis Navigator. The navigator will allow them to review relevant patient data, reference sepsis guidelines, and keep tabs on a live-updating sepsis checklist to ensure they complete each element in order and on time. Following identification in the ED, both study arms will receive the same bundle (see below). The only difference will be the timing: For the Hour-1 bundle, all interventions in the bundle must be initiated within 1 hour.
