In immunology, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is an inflammatory state affecting the whole body. It is the body's response to an infectious or noninfectious insult. Although the definition of SIRS refers to it as an "inflammatory" response, it actually has pro- and anti-inflammatory components.
SIRS (systemic inflammatory response syndrome) is an exaggerated defense response from your body to a harmful stressor. It causes severe inflammation throughout your body. This can lead to reversible or irreversible organ failure and even death. Examples of stressors include: Infection. Surgery. Acute (sudden and severe) inflammation.

Nov 12, 2020 · Background. Although still in use clinically, it is important to note that systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) as a definition has been abandoned since 2016. This has occurred...
In immunology, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) is a form of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) that can be triggered by a variety of factors such as infections and certain drugs. It refers to cytokine storm syndromes (CSS) [4] and occurs when large numbers of white blood cells are activated and release inflammatory cytokines , which ...

Septic shock may be regarded as a stage of SIRS (Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome), in which sepsis, severe sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) represent different stages of a pathophysiological process. If an organism cannot cope with an infection, it may lead to a systemic response - sepsis, which may further progress ...
1. Fever >38 C or < 36 C. 2. Heart rate >90 beats per minute. 3. Respiratory rate >20 breaths per minute or PaCO2 <32 mm Hg. 4. Abnormal white blood cell count (>12,000/mm3 or <4,000/ mm3 or >10% bands) SIRS can be incited by ischemia, inflammation, trauma, infection or a combination of several “insults”.
