Abstract
Pediatric sepsis continues to be a major public health concern, leading to considerable morbidity and mortality despite progress in medical treatments. This review explores methods for the prompt detection and management of sepsis in children, highlighting the importance of early recognition and intervention. Diagnosing sepsis in children is difficult because of its non-specific symptoms and the diverse ways it presents in different age groups. Key strategies include enhancing parental education, improving pre-hospital recognition by emergency medical services (EMS), and leveraging the pivotal role of nurses in emergency settings. Effective management involves prompt administration of antimicrobials, appropriate use of vasoactive agents, and comprehensive post-sepsis care to improve long-term outcomes. Advanced diagnostic tools and rapid, reliable biomarkers are crucial for early detection. Additionally, antimicrobial stewardship programs and public health campaigns play a vital role in reducing sepsis incidence. By focusing on these strategies, healthcare providers can significantly improve the early identification and management of sepsis in children, enhancing survival rates and long-term quality of life for pediatric sepsis survivors.
