Exception: AI Sepsis Alert Override in Post-Surgical Patients

Clinical exception documentation for a recurring pattern where AI sepsis detection algorithms generate false positive alerts in post-surgical patients during the expected inflammatory response window (hours 6-48 post-operation). The exception defines: (1) The specific patient population and time window where the exception applies, (2) The clinical parameters that distinguish expected post-surgical inflammation from true sepsis onset, (3) The nurse assessment protocol that must be completed before the alert can be dismissed, (4) The mandatory re-evaluation trigger points that reactivate full AI monitoring. This exception has been validated across 3 ICU units and 847 patient cases. Proposed for inclusion in the EDENA Clinical Exception Library.
