    Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) complicates sepsis in up to 40% of patients, with a mortality risk of 40-50% due to severe inflammatory responses.

  • 3

    Gastrointestinal complications occur in 50-80% of critically ill patients with sepsis, leading to systemic inflammation and increased bacterial translocation.

  • 4

    Current sepsis management focuses on early antibiotic administration and fluid resuscitation, but challenges remain due to antibiotic resistance and organ failure.
