ABSTRACT
Sepsis is defined as an uncontrolled systemic inflammatory phenomenon and it is an important cause of morbidity and mortality all around the world. There are several important issues in the pathogenesis of septic phenomenon. First, the host response, more than the nature or type of infection, appears as a critical determinant in patient prognosis. Second, monocytes and endothelial cells play a central role in initiating and perpetuating the host response. Third, sepsis is clearly associated with the simultaneous activation of the inflammatory and coagulation cascades, and most of their components are markers or mediators of the host response. As corollary, the effort to defeat and eliminate pathogens may generate collateral damage on normal tissues, resulting in organ dysfunction and death. In the most exaggerated scenario, vasoregulatory dysfunction and microaggregation impair microvascular flow, creating local hypoxia, which may deteriorate cellular respiration. Impairment of oxygen delivery and utilization leads to global tissue hypoxia and mitochondrial respiration failure.
