How does a baby cause sepsis?

Infants may develop sepsis due to skin or mucous membrane damage, respiratory, digestive and umbilical infections, or local infections.

Infants may develop sepsis due to the following causes:

1. Skin or mucous membrane damage: bacteria can enter the bloodstream through the skin or mucous membrane damage, causing infection.

2. Respiratory tract infection: bacteria can enter the bloodstream through the respiratory tract, causing infection.

3. Digestive tract infection: bacteria can enter the bloodstream through the digestive tract, causing infection.

4. Umbilical infection: umbilical cord broken or improper handling after birth, caused by bacterial infection.

5. Local infection: impetigo, furuncle, carbuncle, etc., bacteria can cause sepsis through the blood circulation. In

short, infant sepsis is a serious disease that requires timely diagnosis and treatment. If your baby has symptoms such as fever, no feeding, no crying, listlessness, etc., seek medical advice promptly for early diagnosis and treatment.
