Rapid evolution of sepsis syndromes means that timely diagnosis and treatment are critical in improving outcomes but this may be difficult to achieve in many low- and middle- income countries (LMICs) and there is a lack of high quality clinical evidence to guide diagnosis and management in LMIC settings. The wide variability in health systems in LMICs means that additional areas of guidance may be required where staff or facilities are lacking. In the absence of clinical data, to address some of these issues, the investigators aim to use Delphi methodology to obtain experts consensus statements on some specific aspects of sepsis management in LMICs.
