What is "sepsis"?
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body's response to an infection causes widespread inflammation, leading to tissue damage, organ failure, and potentially death. It typically begins with an infection in the lungs, urinary system, abdomen, or other parts of the body. Symptoms of sepsis include fever, chills, rapid breathing and heart rate, confusion, and extreme pain or discomfort. Early detection and immediate treatment with antibiotics and fluids given through a vein are crucial to improve outcomes. Serious cases may require close monitoring in a hospital, including medications to support blood pressure and breathing machines to help with breathing.
