What is Septic Shock?
Bacterial blood infections in dogs fall into two categories:
bacteremia and sepsis. Bacteremia refers to the brief presence of bacteria in
the blood, whereas sepsis refers to the illness-causing presence of bacteria in
the blood for an extended period of time. Septic shock can occur when sepsis
becomes severe.
There are two stages of symptoms: early and late. Heart rate
elevation, trembling, fever, and rapid breathing are among the early stage
symptoms. Low body temperature, difficulty breathing, and organ failure are
common late-stage symptoms. IV fluids, antibiotics, cardiovascular support,
feeding tubes, and other treatments, including surgery, are typically necessary
for sepsis treatment. The majority of cases in which a pet has entered septic
shock have a very poor prognosis, although recovery from sepsis is dependent on
the severity and underlying conditions.
Symptoms of Septic
Shock in Dogs
The symptoms of
sepsis will vary depending on how severe the condition is, how long it lasts,
and the underlying causes of the septic condition. Symptom progression
typically occurs in two stages: early and late.
Rapid heart rate, bounding pulses, rapid temperature rise,
rapid breathing or panting, decreased urinary output, glucose deficiency in the
bloodstream, red mucous membranes, late stages: Pale mucous membranes,
irregular heartbeat, cool extremities, a dazed state, a low body temperature,
organ failure, difficulty breathing, and fluid retention are all symptoms of
sepsis, also known as septic shock. This condition occurs when bacteria and/or
their toxins remain in the bloodstream for an extended period of time. The most
common cause of sepsis, which is more uncommon than bacteremia, is an infection
in the lungs, stomach, or urinary tract. Surgery can also result in sepsis. The
presence of a foreign body can raise the risk of sepsis. Sepsis is more common
in animals with disorders of the immune system. Extreme sepsis is known as
septic shock.
Septic shock in dogs is frequently brought on by cytokines,
which the immune system makes to fight infections, as well as toxins made by
bacteria. The dilation of the blood vessels caused by these substances lowers
blood pressure. There is a reduction in blood flow, including to vital organs
like the kidneys and brain. In an effort to make up for this, the body
increases heart rate to pump more blood. This weakens the heart over time,
reducing blood flow even more. The GI tract, respiratory tract, severe dental
issues, persistent UTIs, and infected wounds are the most common sources of
sepsis.
Dogs with septic shock are treated with a secondary focus on
treating the patient's symptoms and stabilizing them during the course of the
infection known as sepsis.
