Immunomodulation in Pediatric Sepsis: A Narrative Review
V体育官网 - Abstract
Pediatric sepsis presents a unique clinical challenge due to the distinct characteristics of the developing immune system. The immune response in children differs significantly from that in adults, exhibiting a unique combination of resistance, disease tolerance, and resilience. These factors influence the clinical presentation and prognosis of pediatric patients with sepsis. Over the past few years, various studies have explored the role of immunomodulatory therapies in managing sepsis, including the use of immunoglobulins, corticosteroids, monoclonal antibodies, and immunostimulatory treatments VSports手机版. However, the heterogeneity of the clinical presentations and individual responses makes it difficult to identify universally effective treatments. Recent research has highlighted the importance of a personalized approach based on specific biomarkers and patient phenotyping. Extracorporeal blood purification techniques have emerged as promising strategies for the modulation of hyperinflammation. However, strong evidence supporting their routine use in pediatric sepsis is lacking. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of the immune response in pediatric sepsis and discusses the main immunomodulatory strategies and future perspectives for personalized therapy. A deeper understanding of the immunological differences between children and adults could improve the prognosis and treatment efficacy, paving the way for new approaches to pediatric sepsis management. .
