Challenges in Understanding and Treating Inflammatory Responses in Critically Ill Children
Dr. Mark Hall discusses the challenges in comprehending the immune and inflammatory response to sepsis. The lack of attention to individualized therapy based on patient physiology, despite the recognition of diverse sepsis subtypes and phenotypes, poses a significant issue. Historically, anti-inflammatory therapy trials for sepsis in adults largely failed, emphasizing the need to move beyond uniform treatments and consider the vast heterogeneity in immune responses.
