[Chinese expert consensus on diagnosis and management of immunosuppression in sepsis]

Abstract

This expert consensus uses clinical research evidence to explain the mechanism, monitoring and evaluation of sepsis-induced immunosuppression, and treatment with immune stimulation from two aspects: innate immunity and acquired immunity, aiming to help clinicians better understand sepsis-induced immune depression and its clinical significance. Clinical data suggest that the immune dysfunction is critically involved in the occurrence and development of sepsis. Quantitative detection of monocyte human leukocyte antigen DR and lymphocyte count can be used as important indicators to reflect the innate immune and acquired immune dysfunction in patients with sepsis. Immunomodulation therapy includes medication to improve innate immunity and acquired immunity, and immune stimulation combined with anti-inflammatory response.
