Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that can occur when an infection triggers a chain reaction throughout the body. It is a medical emergency that requires prompt treatment, and it can lead to tissue damage, organ failure, and even death. Sepsis is a major public health concern, and it affects millions of people worldwide each year.
Causes of Sepsis
Sepsis is caused by a dysregulated response to an infection. When the body’s immune system fights an infection, it releases chemicals into the bloodstream to help kill the infection. In some cases, the immune system can overreact and release too many of these chemicals, which can lead to sepsis.
