Can sepsis be cured? How to treat it?

Sepsis is actually not scary. First of all, patients should adjust their mentality and relax before receiving treatment. The treatment of sepsis is relatively simple. In addition to drug treatment, daily care also needs attention. Let’s take a look at the treatments for sepsis.

Treatment of sepsis: The treatment of sepsis is very limited. Patients with sepsis can be hospitalized for a long time, follow the doctor's advice, and get well through medication.

1. General treatment of sepsis: bed rest, strengthen nutrition, and ensure that the patient has adequate water and vitamins; for patients with small food intake and vomiting and diarrhea, intravenous rehydration is required to maintain water, electrolyte and acid-base balance. Strengthen care, pay attention to oral hygiene and skin cleanliness, and prevent secondary infection and the formation of bedsores.

2. Symptomatic treatment of sepsis: high fever and chills can be treated with intramuscular injection of 2 ml of compound aminopyrine. Those with high body temperature may consider sub-hibernation therapy. While giving hibernation drugs, ice packs should be placed on the head, neck, armpits, and groin to maintain the body temperature at around 38°C. Sedatives are given to those who are restless to relieve symptoms and patient pain. For convulsions, inject 0.1 g of Lumina intramuscularly. Sepsis can cause many other diseases. Sepsis is very harmful to the body. We can only constantly train ourselves and improve our immunity. For severe septicemia such as toxic shock and toxic myocarditis, while making full use of effective antibacterial drugs, a brief 3-5 course of adrenal cortex hormone treatment can be given, with 200-300 mg of hydrocortisone per day or 10-15 mg of dexamethasone per day. In the treatment of DIC and multiple organ failure in septic shock, appropriate measures should be taken. Patients can receive a transfusion of fresh blood or gamma globulin to improve their physical condition.

3. Antimicrobial treatment of sepsis: Once sepsis is diagnosed, empirical antimicrobial treatment should be given according to the situation before the etiological results are obtained. The dosage regimen can be adjusted later based on the type of pathogen and the results of drug sensitivity tests. Antimicrobial treatment of sepsis can be achieved by combining two effective antimicrobial drugs. In order to ensure appropriate plasma and tissue drug concentrations, intravenous administration is recommended and large doses are required. Treating sepsis is a long process, during which the patient will suffer a lot. If you have sepsis, you should pay more attention to rest and have a diversified diet. A fungicide should be used. The course of treatment should be longer, generally more than 3 weeks, or continue taking the medicine for 7 to 10 days after the body temperature drops to normal and the clinical symptoms disappear.
