Lay definition of sepsis: the Merinoff
definition:
Sepsis is a life-threatening
condition that arises when the
bodys response to an infection
injures its own tissues and organs.
Professional narrative definition of
Sepsis: Singer M et al (Sepsis-3):
Sepsis is characterised by a life-
threatening organ dysfunction due to
a dysregulated host response to
infection.
Definition of septic shock: Singer M et
al (Sepsis-3):
Septic shock is a subset of sepsis
where particularly profound circulatory,
cellular and metabolic abnormalities
substantially increase mortality.
Table 1: Sepsis incidence in England
(no. of episodes per year as reported by the Health and Social Care Information Centre (now NHS Digital)
Year 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15
Number 91,881 101,015 114,285 122,822 141,772
SEPSIS CLAIMS MORE LIVES
THAN LUNG CANCER, AND MORE
THAN BOWEL, BREAST AND
PROSTATE CANCER COMBINED
(46,000-67,000)
The Cost of Sepsis
YHEC estimated, given that there are at least
250,000 cases of sepsis every year, that sepsis
costs the NHS between 贈1.5 and 贈2 billion
each year, and our wider economy at least 贈11
billion and possibly as high as 贈15.6 billion.
