In October 2021, the National Board of Health and Welfare published a new document on coding sepsis and septic shock.
In principle, the document does not contain any news affecting SIR's approach to diagnosis. However, there are a number of examples in the document that can support the discussion at home regarding different patients.

We would also like to take this opportunity to recommend e-learning from SIR that addresses some examples of coding in sepsis and septic shock. Education portal
