The difference between the time at which an alarm (talarm) was fired (i.e., risk score exceeded a decision threshold) and tlactate /tsuspicion/tABX/tculture for the Hospital-A Temporal ICU and ED cohorts are shown. talarm corresponded to the earliest time at which an alarm was fired in the interval [tsuspicion˗ 12 h, tsuspicion+ 12 h]. tlactate corresponded to the earliest time at which a lactate measurement was made in the interval [tsuspicion˗ 12 h, tsuspicion+ 12 h]. tABX corresponded to the time at which antibiotics were ordered following tsuspicion. tculture corresponded to the time at which cultures were ordered following tsuspicion. A negative value indicates the alarm was fired after the time point of interest.
