Sepsis is the body’s extreme response to an infection. It is a life-threatening medical emergency. Sepsis happens when an infection you already have triggers a chain reaction throughout your body. Infections that lead to sepsis most often start in the lung, urinary tract, skin, or gastrointestinal tract. Without timely treatment, sepsis can rapidly lead to tissue damage, organ failure, and death.
What causes sepsis?
Infections can put you or your loved one at risk for sepsis. When germs get into a person’s body, they can cause an infection. If you don’t stop that infection, it can cause sepsis. Bacterial infections cause most cases of sepsis. Sepsis can also be a result of other infections, including viral infections, such as COVID-19 or influenza, or fungal infections.
Symptoms of sepsis
Symptoms of sepsis may include:
Change in mental status.
Fast, shallow breathing.
Sweating for no clear reason.
Feeling lightheaded.
Shivering.
Symptoms specific to the type of infection, such as painful urination from a urinary tract infection or worsening cough from pneumonia.
Symptoms of sepsis are not specific. They can vary from person to person, and sepsis may appear differently in children than in adults.
