Sepsis in pregnancy : a rodent model exploring the cardiovascular adaptation and susceptibility to infection

2017-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Sepsis is a major cause of maternal mortality worldwide and is therefore an area of particular importance. Septic shock is characterised by cardiovascular collapse and multi organ dysfunction resulting from an overwhelming immune response to a bacterial infection. Nitric oxide (NO) release during pregnancy may exacerbate sepsis-induced hypotension. The endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase, asymmetric dime...
