The word sepsis comes from the Greek meaning âdecayâ or âto putrefy.â In medical terms, sepsis is defined as either âthe presence of pathogenic organisms or their toxins in the blood and tissuesâ or âthe poisoned condition resulting from the presence of pathogens or their toxins as in septicemia.â.
Sepsis is a common and potentially life-threatening condition triggered by an infection. In sepsis, the bodyâs immune system goes into overdrive, setting off a series of reactions including widespread inflammation, swelling and blood clotting.ome people with severe sepsis and most people with septic shock require admission to an intensive care unit (ICU) , where the bodyâs organs can be supported while the infection is treated. As a result of problems with vital organs, people with severe sepsis are likely to be very ill and the condition can be fatal.
