Sepsis
Sepsis is a medical emergency and is a leading cause of preventable death and persistent harm in children. It is widely acknowledged that sepsis can be a difficult diagnosis in children and infants.
This website contains educational resources, clinical tools and information to help support clinicians and healthcare professionals across Queensland in screening and recognising sepsis earlier and initiating treatment in line with international best-practice guidelines.
Your role is key in the treatment of children with sepsis or septic shock and with your support we can greatly improve the outcomes for children, young people and their families.
