Population at increased risks for sepsis are elderly, ICU admits, immunocompromised, bacteremic, with [[community acquired pneumonia]]
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.

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]
