Dr John Adabie Appiah, Critical Care Physician at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), has emphasised the need for African countries, and Ghana in particular, to pay attention to managing Sepsis.

According to him, even though there is some research ongoing, work done is very minimal in Africa.

Sepsis is a serious condition that happens when the body's immune system has an extreme response to an infection.

The body's reaction causes damage to its own tissues and organs, including the brain, lungs, and kidneys.
