Sepsis is a life-threatening medical emergency. There is a paucity of information on whether quality improvement approaches reduce the in-hospital sepsis caseload or save lives and decrease the healthcare system and society's cost at the provincial/national levels. This study aimed to assess the outcomes and economic impact of a province-wide quality improvement initiative in Canada.
