Sepsis is a life-threatening response to an infection that can cause organ dysfunction. Early recognition and urgent treatment are essential. UK healthcare professionals can follow NHS and NICE sepsis guidance.
Signs may include confusion, fast breathing, high or low temperature, rapid heart rate, reduced urine and mottled or pale skin. Use NHS and NICE guidance to recognise suspected sepsis promptly.
Anyone with an infection can develop sepsis. Higher-risk groups include babies, children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems or chronic conditions. Follow UK sepsis guidance for risk assessment.
Healthcare professionals assess symptoms, observations, infection risk and clinical deterioration. NICE sepsis guidance provides age-specific recommendations for identifying and managing suspected sepsis.
Treat suspected sepsis as a medical emergency. Escalate concerns immediately and follow local escalation procedures and NICE guidance. Early assessment and treatment can reduce the risk of serious complications.
