Sepsis secondary to peritonitis can have life-threatening ramifications. The abdominal compartment can become a large nidus for pathogens resistant to standard therapy. On top of that, the abdominal compartment serves as a conduit to other vital organs, which can hasten the spread of resistant pathogens. This activity explains when septic peritonitis should be considered on a differential diagnosis, articulates how to evaluate for this condition properly, and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in caring for patients with this condition.
