In this episode of The Good GP Podcast, host Dr Krystyna de Lange is joined by Dr Emily Gordon to discuss the topic of sepsis within the primary care setting. Dr Gordon, a respected general practitioner and previous recipient of the RACGP Queensland GP of the Year award, shares her expertise to help GPs better identify and manage this life-threatening condition.

From definition and causes of sepsis, highlighting its potential to come from infections in common areas such as the lungs, skin, urinary tract, or gastrointestinal tract. Dr Gordon emphasises the importance of early detection through recognising both red and amber flag symptoms, which could suggest the onset of sepsis.

Dr Gordon provides guidance tailored for GPs on how to respond effectively if sepsis is suspected. They explore the key risk factors and vulnerable patient populations who may be at heightened risk for sepsis.

Dr Gordon introduces practical resources including a new sepsis screening tool for adults, designed to aid primary healthcare providers in accurately identifying sepsis early and ensuring prompt and appropriate management. This tool, currently available in the pilot project phase in Queensland, underscores the significance of education and vigilance in improving patient outcomes.
