Since 1991, for the last 30 years, the world medical community has paid considerable attention to the problem of sepsis, one of the most serious diseases in the world with the high mortality rate. Significant work was done in order to understand the essence of this disease in order to develop effective methods of its treatment. The main attention was paid to the formulation of the definition of sepsis and its main diagnostic criteria. Three conciliatory world conferences (1991, 2001 and 2016) were dedicated to this problem. They offered important definitions and interesting views on the problem of sepsis. But, despite such big efforts of the world community, the problem of sepsis was not finally resolved. In this regard, in May 2017, the 70th session of the World Health Assembly adopted a new resolution on sepsis on the basis of the report of the WHO Secretariat. According to it, the primary attention should be focused on improving early diagnosis, finding new markers and improving treatment tactics and monitoring of patients.
