Abstract
Sepsis is an important global health issue that is estimated to affect more than 25 million children per year worldwide and results in 3.4 million deaths, predominantly in children younger than 5 years of age.1 Reducing childhood deaths from sepsis is a WHO Global Health Priority.2 Yet, reporting of paediatric sepsis epidemiology is limited and variable due to inconsistencies in the methods used for case ascertainment and the lack of a gold standard for reporting.
