ABSTRACT

Ningún órgano se encuentra exento de la disfunción ocasionada por la sepsis. La actividad inflamatoria sostenida y no controlada pone en marcha una secuencia de mecanismos sistémicos tendientes a alterar la homeostasis vascular y tisular. Esto es potenciado por el efecto propio de los microorganismos, lo que genera graves consecuencias funcionales para el paciente.El organismo del niño es particularmente sensible a los efectos de la sepsis, en parte, debido a la inmadurez de numerosas variables fisiológicas. En consecuencia, el impacto clínico suele ser precoz y se asocia con mayor gravedad.Si bien los mecanismos que generan disfunción orgánica son múltiples, complejos y muchos de ellos no completamente dilucidados, su conocimiento facilita la comprensión del escenario clínico y permite decidir la estrategia terapéutica apropiada para cada caso en particular


No organ is exempt from sepsis-induced dysfunction. Sustained, uncontrolled inflammatory activity triggers a sequence of systemic mechanisms that tend to affect tissue and vascular homeostasis. This is boosted by the effect typical of microorganisms, which leads to severe functional consequences for the patient.A child's body is particularly sensitive to the effects of sepsis, partly due to the immaturity of several physiological variables. As a result, there is usually an early clinical impact associated with a greater severity.Although several intricate mechanisms lead to organ dysfunction, and many of them have not been fully elucidated, knowing them facilitates the understanding of the clinical picture and allows to establish an adequate therapeutic approach for each specific case.
