Conducta obstétrica ante sepsis en primigesta adolescente de 13 años con embarazo de 18 semanas de gestación.

Sepsis is a clinical syndrome characterized by alterations in organic, biological, biochemical functioning, produced by an altered, exaggerated response to infectious processes. It can cause multiple organ failure and even death. It starts from an infection anywhere in the body that can cause bacteremia, progress to sepsis and septic shock, and complicate with a multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and even lead to death. The main causes of sepsis in pregnancy are pyelonephritis and chorioamnionitis, while in the puerperium, genital tract infections and endometritis are included. The criteria for the diagnosis of sepsis in the pregnant population, especially in adolescents, are extrapolated from the general population, which is why it is often wrong because it is confused with the physiological changes of pregnancy, for this reason its diagnosis becomes a challenge for the clinician. Sepsis and septic shock during pregnancy can be the result of obstetric and non-obstetric factors, as well as conditions that complicate pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium. The incidence of sepsis increases with maternal age, already generating a risk factor for both mother and baby, it also increases with the use of immunosuppressive agents, the number of resistant microorganisms and invasive processes.
