De Global Sepsis Alliance, gevormd door een groep international vermaarde intensivisten, heeft 13 september 2012 uitgeroepen tot Wereld Sepsis Dag.
Global Sepsis Alliance
Global Sepsis Alliance (GSA) is a non-profit organization supporting the efforts of an estimated 600,000 caregivers in more than 70 countries as they seek to better understand and combat what many experts believe to be the leading cause of death worldwide: sepsis. The GSA has rallied the Global Sepsis Community to elevate public, philanthropic and governmental awareness, understanding and support of sepsis and to accelerate collaboration among researchers, clinicians, associated working groups and those dedicated to supporting them.
