Sepsis and management: how to improve the outcomes of treatment of patients with sepsis

Abstract

Severe septic complications are an important clinical problem. The outcomes of sepsis treatment, not to mention septic shock, are extremely unsatisfactory. To improve outcomes, the complex approach should be used, which, according to modern ideas about management as a science of health management, should extend to the field of human, medical, technological and material resources. The article considers the sticking-points in each of these areas and, based on literature data and own experience, makes suggestions for improving the care of patients with sepsis.
