🩺 Sepsis Progression and Organ Dysfunction Cascade

Trace how a localized infection can trigger a systemic inflammatory response, vasodilation, and capillary leak that drive falling blood pressure and organ failure in sepsis.

The simulation traces how an infection focus releases inflammatory mediators that cause systemic vasodilation and capillary leak, driving falling blood pressure and progressive organ dysfunction across the body.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

The simulation traces how an infection focus releases inflammatory mediators that cause systemic vasodilation and capillary leak, driving falling blood pressure and progressive organ dysfunction across the body.

🎮 How to Use

Set the infection severity and treatment delay sliders to see how quickly vasodilation, capillary leak, and organ dysfunction progress, and compare outcomes with early versus delayed intervention in the 3D view.

💡 Did You Know?

Research on septic shock has shown that mortality increases measurably for every hour that effective antibiotic treatment is delayed after the condition is recognized, making speed of treatment one of the strongest predictors of survival.
