The Pacific Northwest Sepsis Conference is in its 8th year of providing high-quality sepsis education to an international community of people interested in improving sepsis care and outcomes.  This year, we redesigned the conference to respect our community’s need for social distancing and were able to provide this virtual education at no cost to attendees. The conference featured presentations by international experts on sepsis care and we thank them for graciously volunteering their time to make the day possible. Detailed speaker information is available here.

We would like to thank the following institutions for allowing members of their staff to serve on our planning committee:  Airlift Northwest, Harborview Medical Center, Kittitas Valley Healthcare, LifeMed Alaska, MultiCare, Oregon Health Sciences University, Overlake Medical Center, Seattle Children’s Hospital, St Luke’s Health System, Swedish Medical Center, University of Washington Medical Center Montlake and Northwest, and Washington State Hospital Association. Planning committee information is available here.

We would also like to thank our sponsor, LaJolla Pharmaceutical for an educational grant to support this conference.
