What is Sepsis?

Sepsis is the body’s extreme response to an infection. It can be 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.

September is Sepsis Awareness Month, please join Kristina Stadermann, BSN, RN, and Tracy Love, MSN, RN, CNL to learn more about how to prevent sepsis, how to recognize sepsis symptoms, and available treatment options.
