Thank you for educating and thereby raising awareness about Sepsis. My 27-year-old niece died from it. She had a UTI. At the first part of August this year, my daughter was hospitalized and diagnosed with viral sepsis and pneumonia. They said the pneumonia was gram positive. Thank God she made it through, but is having ongoing issues with her eyes, throat, cough, and pretty bad body aches. I wish I knew how to help her get better.
We are so sorry to hear about your niece and thank you for sharing with the WBM community. We wish you and your family a full recovery and well wishes moving forward
UK, observations - the various parameters get scored. Score of 3 or more in one parameter, consider sepsis. Score of 5 or more overall, consider sepsis. New confusiion scores 3 on its own. All of this is done by health care assistants as soon as the patient arrives in ED... It has to be escalated if sepsis is indicated. The system also decides frequency of obs depending on what the patient is scoring.
This is what once was called "blood poisoning", right? A friend of mine got it when a colon surgery failed (sutures reopened) and his system was overwhelmed. Wouldn't anyone get "dysregulation" if this happened to them?
Thanks for checking out the video and for commenting. There is a lot of overlap with the old school concept of “blood poisoning”. This is often describing bacteremia or when the infection spreads into the blood. When this happens, you are very high risk to have sepsis and even septic shock, as those bacteria in the blood are activating immune responses all throughout the body

Appreciate the kind words! Thanks for checking out the video and for commenting!
Hope you do a series on this …love to be informed
We absolutely plan on it! Stay tuned. Next video on sepsis most likely will come out early next week

Interesting to hear the approach from another country! Thanks for sharing. Sounds like there is some overlap but also some differences
