Abstract
Sepsis is an inflammatory response to severe infection, which can affect any organ system. This inflammatory response can lead to life-threatening end organ dysfunction. In this article, we review pulmonary complications of sepsis including hypoxemia and acute respiratory distress syndrome. We also discuss pulmonary sources of sepsis including the management of community- and hospital-acquired pneumonia and ventilator-associated pneumonia.
