儿童脓毒症流行病学趋势及特点

Epidemiological trend and features of sepsis in children

《第三版脓毒症与脓毒症休克定义国际共识》将脓毒症定义为宿主对感染反应失调所致的危及生命的脏器功能不全,新定义与既往所提出的"严重脓毒症"这一概念较为接近。该文从流行病学角度,对此类疾病的病原学、基础疾病及脏器功能不全、发病率及预后特点做一介绍。

In the third international consensus definitions for sepsis and septic shock, sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. This new definition is similar to severe sepsis in the past. This article describes the epidemiological characteristics of this disease, including etiology, underlying diseases, organ dysfunctions, prevalence and prognosis.
