A sepsis definition should describe what sepsis “is.” 4 In contrast, the syndrome cannot presently be diagnosed using any standardized, validated test and hence sepsis definitions cannot readily be applied to the clinical setting. Consequently, there is a need to establish objective parameters that can be measured in individual animals, and ...

Sepsis is a serious life-threatening illness caused by a myriad of different infectious etiologies, host responses, and clinical contexts [1]. It is a prevailing cause of mortality in small animal patients, with a recent multicenter study showing a mortality rate of 70% in septic dogs that developed multiorgan dysfunction [2]. Understanding of the pathophysiology, diagnostic criteria, and ...
