Interpretation and prospect of clinical practice guideline on traditional Chinese medicine therapy alone or combined with antibiotics for sepsis / 中国中药杂志

Clinical practice guideline on traditional Chinese medicine therapy alone or combined with antibiotics for sepsis is strictly in accordance with the latest diagnostic criteria for sepsis (sepsis-3) for the treatment of septic patients at different stages through syndrome differentiation.
