Yes, sepsis can be life-threatening. It occurs when the body's response to infection leads to widespread inflammation, potentially causing organ failure and death. Prompt recognition and treatment are crucial, as severe sepsis and septic shock can rapidly progress and significantly increase the risk of mortality. Early intervention with antibiotics and supportive care can improve outcomes.
