Sepsis, a condition marked by an imbalanced immune response to infection, can lead to organ dysfunction, and potentially life-threatening consequences. Within the spectrum of sepsis, septic shock stands out as a severe manifestation with pronounced circulatory and cellular metabolism abnormalities, contributing to an elevated mortality rate. This literature review aims to provide an enhanced understanding of the epidemiology and outcomes of septic shock in children populations residing in developing countries. By synthesizing and expanding upon existing research in the field, this review seeks to offer a more comprehensive analysis of this critical healthcare issue.
