A large amount of research has been published demonstrating the importance of key interventions in reducing mortality rates of pediatric patients with sepsis. In order to quickly recognize systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) or sepsis and initiate interventions, current literature suggests nurses must be knowledgeable in recognizing the four SIRS criteria and aware of the importance of prompt intervention. Van Sell and Kalofissudis' Theory of Nursing Knowledge/Wisdom and Nursing Praxis demonstrates a direct correlation between knowledge and practice and was the organizing framework for this study. This quantitative descriptive study of 242 nurses assessed current knowledge and awareness regarding SIRS recognition and importance of timely intervention of sepsis guidelines among acute and critical care pediatric nurses at a 490-bed urban pediatric hospital. Results demonstrated a significant knowledge deficit among participants in several key areas of SIRS/sepsis recognition. It is highly recommended that an educational intervention be created and implemented for acute and critical care pediatric nurses. An educational intervention geared toward increasing the nurses' knowledge and recognition of SIRS/sepsis would have the potential to decrease mortality and morbidity among pediatric patients.
