The Chart Review Database is a Microsoft Access-based improvement tool that screens for severe sepsis, collects and organizes data for chart abstraction, and calculates the monthly results of each of the Severe Sepsis Quality Indicators.  Enter the results of your chart abstraction and the database automatically generates graphs of your improvement and produces flow charts documenting the results of your resuscitation efforts.
