๐Overview
Sepsis is a serious medical condition characterized by the body's extreme and dysregulated response to an infection, leading to systemic inflammation and potential organ dysfunction. It is a modern clinical syndrome rather than a single disease, often resulting from bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic infections. Early recognition and treatment are critical to prevent progression to septic shock and death.
