Pediatric Sepsis Data Colaboratory – Colab-Orate With Us in the Fight Against Sepsis

Banner.jpg

The Pediatric Sepsis Data CoLaboratory (Sepsis Colab) is a new international data-sharing network of healthcare workers, policymakers, researchers, and advocacy partners collaborating to address the high burden of pediatric sepsis mortality and morbidity globally. The network was formed through a partnership between the Centre for International Child Health (CICH) at BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver and the World Federation of Pediatric Intensive and Critical Care Societies (WFPICCS).

The vision for the Sepsis CoLab arose out of the recognition that despite important milestones recently achieved in the fight against sepsis, lack of routinely collected data and coordination is hampering progress. The Sepsis CoLab shares data to further common priorities among collaborators to improve sepsis treatments and outcomes and facilitates partnerships to develop and validate tools for data collection and sharing, enabling continuous quality improvement of care in health facilities across the world.

Those interested in joining the Sepsis CoLab are invited to complete a brief Membership Application here.

Sepsis CoLab Members are provided with networking opportunities and mentorship as well as access to a host of resources shared through Scholars Portal Dataverse, a secure, open-source data repository.
