Explanation: Sepsis can be defined as the way our body system respond to infection or invasion of a foreign body into the body system.(usually bacterial infection)
When Sepsis becomes severe,it is injurious to organs of the body(affects their function in a negative way).
Sepsis occurs when the body's immune system tends to fight infection in the body by the release of certain chemicals(cytokines and prostaglandins),the body instead of reacting in a coordinated manner to these chemicals rather reacts out of proportion to these chemicals released to fight infection and this will lead damage to organs of the body system.
