3 Background Sepsis is the 3 rd leading killer in the US. 1 There an es4mated 215,000 deaths per year in the US due to Sepsis. 1 Sepsis has been defined by the Society of Cri4cal Care Medicine and American College of Chest Physicians Consensus conference as a systemic inflammatory response syndrome caused by infec?on. 2 A study among US community hospitals showed the rate of severe Sepsis hospitaliza4on almost doubled during an 11- year period studied and is considerably greater than has been previously predicted. Mortality from severe Sepsis also increased significantly over 10 year period. 3 1 Angus, DC; Linde-Zwirble, WT; Lidicker, J; Clermont, G; Carcillo, J.; Pinsky, MR Epidemiology of severe Sepsis in the United States; analysis of incidence, outcome and associated costs of care.

4 Objec?ves Key objec?ves of this study were to: Compare findings from 2003 and 2010, 2011 for the US market only Determine the current awareness of Sepsis in the United States; Explore how the Americans in this study define Sepsis. For 2012, we are switching the research methodology from telephone to online but are using this as a transi4on year. Results from this study are intended for public release. Harris Interactive 4
5 Methodology and Sample Design for Telephone This survey was conducted as part of the Harris Interac4ve omnibus telephone survey. The sample is representa4ve (weighted) of the U.S. adult popula4on living in households with telephones in the con4nental United States. The survey was conducted using random digit dialing (RDD) a technique ensuring geographic representa4veness of the sample and inclusion of households with listed and unlisted telephone numbers. Sample consists of 1,008 adults (502 men and 506 women) 18 years of age and older. Interviewing occurred June 14-17, Harris Interactive 5
6 Methodology and Sample Design for Online This survey was conducted as part of the Harris Interac4ve omnibus online survey. The sample is representa4ve (weighted) of the U.S. adult popula4on living in in the con4nental United States. The survey was conducted using HPOL, Harris Interac4ve panel of respondents recruited through mul4ple sources. Sample consists of 2,203 adults (1,014 men and 1,189 women) 18 years of age and older. Interviewing occurred June 13-15, Harris Interactive 6
7 Execu?ve Summary Harris Interactive 7
8 Execu?ve Summary (Online Methodology) Only four in ten Americans have heard of the term Sepsis. With 14% are not sure if they had heard of the term. Women are more likely than men to report having heard the term Sepsis (44% v. 35%). Those age 35+ are more likely to report having heard the term Sepsis than those under 35 (46% vs. 25%) Harris Interactive 8
9 Execu?ve Summary Of those who have heard of the term Sepsis, many are not sure of how to define this term correctly. 34% of respondents who have heard of the term are unable to define Sepsis. 51% of those that have heard of Sepsis define it as an infec4on. The youngest Americans are less likely to define as an infec4on (32% of those ages under 35 v. 52% of 35 year olds and over). More women define Sepsis as infec4on than men (58% of women compared to 42% of men). Harris Interactive 9
10 Overview 1. One thing we always see in a transi4on from phone to online is a higher number of those who are willing to admit they do not know something. 2. In the research on research we have done, we have found that two things contribute to this first, in an online survey, the not sure op4on is presented. But, second, the presence of a live interviewer always has an adverse effect on the respondent to not want to admit they do not know something even when a not sure response is presented in a telephone environment. 3. Since the level of awareness is not different for either methodology, this shows that the 2 in 5 who say they have heard of it is a true measurement. 4. These findings con4nue to indicate a need for greater understanding of Sepsis. As well as sugges4on that there is s4ll an opportunity to build awareness. Harris Interactive 10
