Abstract

Sepsis characteristics were highlight in this mini review in order to call attention for a complex, age- independent, acute disease faced suddenly by the human body under infection or traumatic stimuli. It may follow surgical intervention, traumatic accident or exposure to an infectious agent. Timely diagnosis and accurate stratification of the severity of sepsis are needed to understand the molecular mechanisms involved in this pathophysiology and reduce mortality. In order to obtain these achievements follow-up studies need to be conducted in intensive care units under translational research.
