Sepsis: Back to Basics

Replay available

Sepsis, a life-threatening condition caused by a dysregulated host response to infection leading to organ dysfunction, is one of the top causes of mortality globally, especially in intensive care units (ICU). Despite its prevalence, sepsis remains a complex syndrome, with complex pathophysiology and considerable variation in how it presents and impacts patients.

In our upcoming webinar, we will revisit the topic of sepsis and hear the latest insights from leading experts in the field.

This webinar is organised by the ESICM Systemic Inflammation and Sepsis Section.
