the Sepsis episode

Sepsis is a life-threatening medical emergency that affects 1.7 million Americans. Unfortunately, fewer than 15% of U.S. adults can readily identify the symptoms. The best treatment is timely recognition and timely management. On this episode of the HouseCall Podcast, Dr. Gilpin invites Dr. Paul Bozyk, pulmonary and critical care expert, and Jennifer Pipta, a sepsis coordinator, to shed some light on sepsis – the signs, symptoms and, most importantly, early recognition and treatment.
