Septic shock causes critical illness by disrupting intermediary metabolism, leading to inefficient cellular energy production. This review details the metabolic disturbances seen in sepsis and septic shock.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Critical Care Medicine
  • Metabolic Disorders

Context:

  • Sepsis and septic shock are leading causes of mortality in Intensive Care Units (ICUs).
  • Despite advances in monitoring, patient outcomes remain challenging.
  • Septic stress induces profound biological changes impacting cellular functions.

Purpose:

  • To review and elucidate the metabolic disturbances associated with sepsis.
  • To describe the alterations in intermediary metabolism during septic shock.

Summary:

  • Sepsis triggers complex biological modifications, resulting in an acquired metabolic disease.
  • Characterized by inefficient cellular utilization of carbohydrates (glucidic), lipids (lipidic), and proteins (protidic) substrates.
  • Impaired cellular oxygen consumption exacerbates metabolic dysfunction.

Impact:

  • Understanding these metabolic disturbances is crucial for developing targeted therapeutic strategies.
  • Highlights the need for metabolic support in managing sepsis and septic shock patients.
  • Provides a foundation for future research into the pathophysiology of septic metabolic derangements.
