Sepsis, a perilous condition wherein an immune system tends to overreact to an infection, remains a topic of intense investigation within the scientific community due to its complexity and diverse manifestations. Sepsis is caused when the body’s immune system becomes overactive in response to an infection, causing inflammation which can affect how well other tissues and organs work.
Sepsis is categorized into three distinct stages: sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock.
- Sepsis
- Severe Sepsis
- Septic Shock
According to estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO), sepsis affects over 30 million individuals all over the world annually, resulting in approximately 6 million fatalities. The associated healthcare costs surpass US$24 billion annually in the United States alone.
