The performance of screening tools and use of blood analyses in prehospital identification of sepsis patients and patients suitable for non-conveyance - an observational study

Identifying sepsis in EMS settings remains challenging, with existing screening tools offering limited accuracy. CRP, WBC, and lactate blood tests add minimal predictive value in distinguishing sepsis or determining non-conveyance eligibility.
