Lesson 1How sepsis and septic shock work in the body: body's reaction, organ problems, and how it gets worseExplains the body's reaction to infection, including swelling and immune paths, small blood vessel failure, and cell problems. Connects these to organ failure, shock getting worse, and signs nurses watch in real time.

Stresses checking fluid response in action, spotting fluid overload at bedside, and nurse ways to balance blood flow without harm.

Stresses early spotting, stop ways, and nurse care for kidney, breathing, and blood support.

Stresses planned pass-ons, closed talk loops, and checklists to keep care going smooth.

Checks getting cultures, recheck treatment with new info, reduce ways, and nurse roles in antibiotic wise use and watching bad effects.

Points out time-key nurse actions, local plan changes, and check-back ways to better follow and patient results.

Covers bedside tools, recheck often, and recording to guide ongoing help and reduce.

Points out nurse roles in prep, move, agree help, and after step watching.
