petemcewan   27 #1 Posted March 22, 2019 Sepsis is a global epidemic. 40000 deaths in the UK. What on earth is going on? Possible cure and treatment.Thiamine, Vit C and Hydrocortisol -and admittance into the ICU ward and antibiotics tailored to the specific bacteria...The right proportions are critical. I'm not a Doctor, but if it is me in the bed then my advocates are going to insist that I get the above treatment. The NHS  is completely challenged when dealing with Sepsis. A close friend of mine died of Sepsis in the Halasham -January 2019. If you are elderly and frail and are admitted into a hospital in the UK with a diagnosis of Sepsis, you will not necessarily get Active Medical Intervention as part of your treatment plan-you may only get palliative care. The UK NHS is not a world leader in the treatment of Sepsis. klebsiella is an organism responsible for causing Sepsis. The organism can be acquired as a hospital born infection. My advice to anyone over the age of 65 is to nominate a Health Care Power Of Attorney.          Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
