Abstract:
Sepsis is a major cause of mortality among children and newborns.The largest part of the global pediatric sepsis burden occurs in middle-and low-income countries,where the mortality of sepsis reaches 24%-50%.It is necessary to provide clinicians with a framework to improve the management of pediatric septic patients.The key of treatment is to ensure adequate tissue perfusion,to maintain cardiovascular and hemodynamic stability,the administration of adequate antibiotics,the proper use of glucocorticoid,and so on.
