What are the symptoms of sepsis?

Patient's question:

My baby has been feeling dizzy and confused lately. I don't know if it could be sepsis. I'd like to ask the doctors for advice. What are the symptoms of sepsis?

Doctor's answer:

First, sepsis refers to a condition where the infection is too severe, leading to a series of symptoms such as high fever, confusion, and more. The symptoms you described in the child require immediate follow-up at the hospital. It could be caused by a disease in the internal medicine system, but it could also be due to intracranial issues. Therefore, it is recommended to visit the pediatric department for follow-up. Blood tests, liver and kidney function tests, and head MRI scans should be conducted to confirm the diagnosis.
