Overview
Common risk factors in the development of sepsis include elderly people with more chronic illnesses; greater use of invasive procedures, immunosuppressive drugs, chemotherapy, and transplantation; and increasing microbial resistance to antibiotics. Other patients population at increased risk are ICU admits, immunocompromised, bacteremic, with community acquired pneumonia, and with genetic predisposition.[1][2]
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of sepsis are
- Increased age (age >65 years)
- Immunosuppression
- Bacteremia
- Community acquired pneumonia
- Genetic predisposition
- Underlying malignancy
- Hemodialysis
- Alcoholism
- Diabetes mellitus
- Recent surgery or other invasive procedures
- Skin injury
- Indwelling lines or catheters
- Intravenous drug misuse
- Pregnancy
