3. Gastrointestinal sepsis (Abdominal infection)

4. Bloodstream sepsis (Septicemia)

The causes of sepsis: Any infection can result in sepsis if not treated properly. The infectious agent passes via the blood and leads to sepsis of any parts of the body. It can be caused due to bacterial infections, fungal infections, old age problems, drug-resistant bacteria, and a weakened immune system.
