Patient's question:
A friend's baby has sepsis. I would like to ask if there will be any impact after neonatal sepsis grows up?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Septicemia refers to the invasion of pathogenic or opportunistic bacteria into the bloodstream, where they grow and reproduce, producing toxins, leading to acute systemic infection. If the bacteria entering the bloodstream are cleared by the body's defense mechanisms without obvious symptoms of toxemia, it is referred to as bacteremia. Septicemia accompanied by multiple abscesses and a prolonged course is called sepsis. After sepsis, there is no residual disability. It is recommended to seek medical treatment at a good hospital, as all good hospitals are excellent.
