Neue SEPSIS-3-Definition: Müssen wir Sepsis in Zukunft behandeln, bevor wir sie diagnostizieren dürfen? = New Sepsis-3 definition: Do we have to treat sepsis before we can diagnose it from now on?
The Third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis and Septic Shock (Sepsis-3) have been available since the beginning of 2016.

However, it seems questionable whether in clinical practice the new definition is really superior to the old one. The most important question is the following: Is it helpful to have a definition that first recognizes a patient once organ dysfunction has occurred and the patient already needs intensive care? |
