natka813 [3]

Answer: The correct answer to the question is DILATED PUPILS.

DILATED PUPILS is not a sign of sepsis.

Explanation: Sepsis can be defined as the way our body system respond to infection or invasion of a foreign body into the body system.(usually bacterial infection)

When Sepsis becomes severe,it is injurious to organs of the body(affects their function in a negative way).

Sepsis occurs when the body's immune system tends to fight infection in the body by the release of certain chemicals(cytokines and prostaglandins),the body instead of reacting in a coordinated manner to these chemicals rather reacts out of proportion to these chemicals released to fight infection and this will lead damage to organs of the body system.

Sepsis is characterised by Fever(above 101°F (38.3°C) or below 96.8°F (36°C), increased in respiratory rate (more than 20 breaths per minute), Increased heart rate (more than 90 beats per minute),increased white blood cell count,low blood pressure and mental confusion.

Treatment of Sepsis includes the administration of antibiotics and intravenous fluid, administration of drugs to support blood pressure and administration of steroids.
