Methods and devices for determining a risk of developing sepsis for a patient

Abstract

A computer-implemented method of determining, for a patient, a risk of developing sepsis is described. The method comprises obtaining, at a computing device, a set of patient data indicative of at least one of: a patient age value, a patient heart rate value, a patient respiratory rate value, a patient diastolic blood pressure value, a patient systolic blood pressure value, a patient temperature value, and a patient oxygen saturation value; and at least one value of a Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW) of the patient. Further, the method comprises determining, based on processing the obtained set of patient data with the computing device, at least one sepsis indicative of the risk for a sepsis event occurring at the patient.
