Summary:Sepsis is an inflammatory reaction that starts with an infectious condition whose mortality rate is bigger than that of breast cancer, prostate cancer and HIV together. Early diagnosis and agility in the implementation of a protocol is crucial to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment. This paper presents an approach to Quality of Service (QoS) management aimed at providing services aware of the urgency in the sepsis diagnosis. The model proposes a non-concurrent environment for services delivery where the sepsis application will guarantee QoS using Software Defined Network (SDN) resources. The implementation of the proposed model shows to be feasible and functional and will avoid concurrent data in the delivering of services with the sepsis application.
