 sepsis is a life-threatening medical condition caused by an overwhelming immune response to an infection. It can lead to septic shock, a severe form of sepsis that can cause organ failure and death if not treated quickly. Treatment for sepsis includes early administration of antibiotics, intravenous fluids, and vasoactive medications to increase blood pressure and reduce the risk of fluid overload. Additionally, vaso-pressors may be used to maintain adequate blood flow to vital organs. This article was authored by Matteo Guarino, Benedetta Perna, Alice Eleonora Chisaro, and others.
