Severe sepsis causes poor organ function or blood flow. [9] The presence of low blood pressure, high blood lactate, or low urine output may suggest poor blood flow. [9] Septic shock is low blood pressure due to sepsis that does not improve after fluid replacement. [9] Sepsis is caused by many organisms including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. [10]
Bloodstream infections (BSIs) are infections of blood caused by blood-borne pathogens. [1] The detection of microbes in the blood (most commonly accomplished by blood cultures [2]) is always abnormal. A bloodstream infection is different from sepsis, which is characterized by severe inflammatory or immune responses of the host organism to ...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) Yes: Coxsackie B virus: Coxsackie B virus infection Enterovirus infection is diagnosed mainly via serological tests such as ELISA and from cell culture. There is no well-accepted treatment for the Coxsackie B group of viruses. Under research [10] PRNP
Septic shock is a result of a systemic response to infection or multiple infectious causes. The precipitating infections that may lead to septic shock if severe enough include but are not limited to appendicitis, pneumonia, bacteremia, diverticulitis, pyelonephritis, meningitis, pancreatitis, necrotizing fasciitis, MRSA and mesenteric ischemia.
Parenchyma is the tissue made up of cells and intercellular spaces that fills the interior of the body of a flatworm, which is an acoelomate. This is a spongy tissue also known as a mesenchymal tissue , in which several types of cells are lodged in their extracellular matrices .
Streptococcal infections include sepsis, pneumonia, and meningitis. [8] These infections can become serious creating a systemic inflammatory response resulting in massive vasodilation, shock, and death. [9] Other bacteria are opportunistic pathogens and cause disease mainly in people with immunosuppression or cystic fibrosis.
White blood cells surround and consume the virus using a mechanism known as phagocytosis [2] (a type of endocytosis) [3] within the extracellular matrix to reduce and fight the infection. The components within the white blood cell are responsible for destroying the virus and recycling its components for the body to use. [citation needed]
Most cases of primary intraparenchymal hemorrhage are the result of chronic hypertension (high blood pressure), cerebral amyloid angiopathy, or both. While these are the causative processes for most cases, a number of other pathological processes are known to accelerate or worsen them, including coagulopathy , vasculitis , brain tumors ...
