What Is a Sepsis Infection?
10. Treatment
It is important to ensure the patient is treated as soon as possible to help ensure their survival and increase the chances of a full recovery. The patient will also likely need to be admitted to a hospital if they are not in a hospital already. Treatment will typically involve antibiotics that will help to deal with any bacterial infections in the body.
Medication will also likely be provided to help stabilize the patient’s blood sugar levels and blood pressure. Dialysis is also sometimes necessary, and the patient may also need to be put on a ventilator. They will need to be monitored closely for signs of septic shocks and other serious complications.
