Abstract EN

Critically ill patients suffer a high rate of nosocomial infection with secondary sepsis being a common cause of death.

Usage of antibiotics and catecholamines is often necessary, but it can compromise complex immune response to infection.

This review explores influence of these life-saving drugs on host immune response to severe infection.
