Sepsis poses a significant challenge in healthcare settings due to its association with heightened morbidity and mortality rates, prolonged hospitalizations, and increased healthcare expenditures. This study aims to investigate the incidence of sepsis, its associated risk factors, and the efficacy of various mitigation efforts implemented at PKU Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital in Yogyakarta. Employing a cross-sectional, analytical observational design, this study examined a sample comprising patients diagnosed with sepsis at the hospital between January 2019 and December 2022, meeting predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria encompassed patients diagnosed with sepsis in accordance with hospital protocols and those admitted between January 2019 and December 31, 2022, while exclusion criteria included patients with incomplete bacteremia diagnoses. Consecutive sampling was utilized for sample selection, with data extracted from patient records maintained in the hospital's medical archives. This study was conducted with the approval of PKU Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital's ethical committee (permit number: 051/KEP-PKU/III/2023). Analysis of four years' worth of data revealed a total of 210 cases of sepsis, comprising 112 male and 98 female patients.
