The progression of this condition is manifested by the occurrence of successive clinical stages, resulting from the systemic inflammatory response secondary to the activation of different inflammatory mediators, leading to organ dysfunction. There is a high burden of evidence on the role of endotoxin in the pathogenesis of sepsis and its crucial role in triggering the inflammatory response in sepsis caused by gram-negative bacteria.
