Symptoms and septic shock are life-threatening diseases that often appear in the intensive care wards of hospitals and pose enormous challenges to the lives of patients. This paper provides you with detailed information on sepsis and sepsis, including its definition, symptoms, causes, diagnosis and treatment, and how to prevent these diseases.
I. What is sepsis and septic shock?
The sepsis is an all-body inflammation syndrome caused by the infection and has complex mechanisms for the onset of the disease, which involve various aspects of disorders such as the immune system, the coagulation system and the metabolic system. When sepsis further develops, leading to severe cyclic and cell metabolic dysfunctions, it develops into a sepsis shock. Septic shock is a serious complication of sepsis, with very high mortality rates.
II. Symptoms
Symptoms of sepsis and septic shock are diverse and can be manifested early in fever, cold warfare, an accelerated heart rate, breathing rush, etc. As the condition progresses, the patient may experience severe symptoms such as low blood pressure, cognitive impairment, less or no urine, and skin plaques. These symptoms indicate that the organ function of the body has been severely impaired and that failure to provide timely treatment may lead to multi-organ failure or even death.
III. Causes
The most common causes of sepsis and sepsis are bacterial infections, such as pneumonia, peritonealitis and urinary system infections. In addition, infections such as viruses, fungi and parasites can cause sepsis. When the human immune system is unable to effectively remove the source of the infection, the infection spreads throughout the body, causing inflammation, leading to sepsis and sepsis.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis of sepsis and septic shock requires a combination of clinical performance of the patient, laboratory and visual examination results. Common laboratory inspection indicators include white cell count, C-reaction protein, calcium reduction, etc., which can reflect the extent of inflammation response. In addition, doctors conduct blood and genoctology examinations to identify the infected pathogens. Visual examinations such as chest X-rays and CTs can help doctors to detect the extent and extent of the infection.
Treatment
The treatment of sepsis and septosis is a comprehensive process, including early anti-infection treatment, liquid resuscitation, application of vascularly active drugs, organ function support, etc. Early anti-infection treatment is key, and doctors select appropriate antibiotics based on infected pathogens. Liquid resuscitation is an important measure to correct the shock and to restore the patient ‘ s effective circulation of blood through a rapid infusion of large quantities of liquid. Angiologically active drugs such as gonaline and dopamine can help to improve blood pressure and tissue infusion. Corresponding organ function support treatment, such as respiratory support, kidney substitution treatment, etc., is also required for cases of organ failure.
Prevention
The key to the prevention of sepsis and septosis is the prevention of infection. In our daily lives, we should be careful to maintain good hygiene practices, such as hand washing and skin cleaning. People suffering from chronic diseases, such as diabetes, chronic kidney diseases and so on, should be actively involved in controlling conditions and preventing infection. In addition, for patients treated in hospitals, medical personnel should strictly observe the principle of sterile operation to prevent the occurrence of infection in hospitals.
In short, sepsis and septic shock are serious diseases that require our utmost attention. Knowledge of these diseases helps us to improve the survival of our patients through early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment. At the same time, we should actively take preventive measures to prevent infection and reduce the incidence of sepsis and sepsis. It is hoped that, through the introduction of this paper, more people will be made aware of sepsis and septic shock, which together contribute to safeguarding human health.
