This assignment discusses the importance of clinical decision making support in managing sepsis, a life-threatening condition that requires timely intervention. The case study describes a patient who presents with symptoms of abdominal pain and rigidity on their lower right side, indicating a possible ruptured appendix leading to peritonitis. The hospital staff quickly recognizes the problem, performs a laparotomy to remove the appendix, and lavages the peritoneum cavity. Antibiotics are administered to halt the progression of SIRS (Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome). The assignment highlights the role of CDS in supporting healthcare professionals in making informed decisions, especially in critical situations like sepsis.
