World Sepsis Day

Any type of infection can cause sepsis

Every year, 50 million people develop sepsis and 11 million people die. Sepsis is a life-threatening response to infection. It can be caused by any type of infection. It may lead to shock, multiple organ failure, and death, especially if not recognized early and treated quickly.

The number of sepsis cases is increasing dramatically. The Global Sepsis Alliance reports that hospitalizations for sepsis have doubled over the last 10 years. And while most associate sepsis with hospital infections, international surveys estimate that 20-40% of sepsis patients develop sepsis outside hospitals.

Simulation training can enable healthcare providers to accurately diagnose and treat sepsis. Using simulation scenarios to learn to identify standard and severe sepsis, to recognize sepsis in high-risk patients, to differentiate between sepsis and other conditions, and to assess and treat septic shock are among some of the learning objectives for simulation training.
