hemorrage, sepsis and toxemia Explanation: Sepsis can be most simply defined as a spectrum of clinical conditions caused by the immune response of a host to infection or trauma and characterized by systemic inflammation and coagulation (Mesters, 1996a; Wheeler, 1999). It ranges from a systemic inflammatory response to organ dysfunction to multiple organ failure, and ultimately death for many patients. Pregnancy toxemia is caused by the sudden extra demand for energy by the fast-growing kids or lambs in the last few weeks of pregnancy. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-21 18:34:39 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I meant Hemorrhage |
