Pediatric Sepsis Week 2024: Join GSA Partners in Australia and US

Pediatric sepsis remains a critical issue, affecting 20.3 million children every year.

This week serves as a reminder of the importance of prevention, early detection, and time-critical treatment to avert 2.9 million deaths among children.

In recognition of Pediatric Sepsis Week 2024, a campaign launched five years ago by the Sepsis Alliance, we invite you to participate in two pivotal events aimed at raising awareness and improving care for pediatric sepsis.

The event, which will be held on April 24 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm AEST, provides a platform for collaboration and knowledge sharing.
