What is Sepsis?

Sepsis is a global healthcare problem with a high risk of death
It impacts an estimated 30 million people per year worldwide
It is more common than a heart attack and claims more lives than any cancer
It may lead to shock, multiple organ failure, and death, especially if not recognized early and treated promptly
Sepsis can be prevented through education and early intervention
