Taiwan singer-actress Landy Wen is recovering after developing septic shock caused by kidney stones, her management said on Tuesday, following 10 days of emergency treatment in hospital.
The 46-year-old was rushed to hospital on May 14 with a persistent high fever and severe abdominal pain, and was admitted to the intensive care unit. According to a statement released through her official account, she has since been transferred to a general ward and is expected to be discharged within a week.
Medical experts say sepsis occurs when bacteria or other pathogens enter the bloodstream and trigger a severe inflammatory response throughout the body.
败血症可能侵犯呼吸、心脏、关节等多个系统，早期症状多种多样：
发烧或低温：出现高热（体温>38.3℃）伴有寒战，或者反常的体温过低（<36℃）。
呼吸急促：呼吸次数超过20次/分钟，尤其是孩子，要尽早就医。
意识模糊：精神萎靡、反应迟钝，或者烦躁不安、胡言乱语，有头晕、困倦、迷糊的感觉。
皮肤湿冷：手脚发凉、皮肤苍白或出冷汗、肌肉酸痛、食欲极差。
有感染源：有伤口、咳嗽或尿痛。
Early symptoms can include fever, rapid breathing, confusion, cold skin and signs of infection such as wounds, coughing or painful urination.
而温岚确诊的败血性休克，是败血症的最危重终极阶段。此时患者会出现血压骤降、体温失控、微循环衰竭，心、肾、肝、肺等多器官快速受损衰竭，即便及时进ICU抢救，依然有极高生命风险。
Septic shock, the most critical stage of the condition, can lead to a sharp drop in blood pressure and rapid organ failure, posing a serious threat to life even with intensive care treatment.
温岚的案例最让人后怕的一点是：无重大基础病、平日状态良好，依旧突发危重败血症。这也揭露了败血症最可怕的特点：不挑年龄、不挑体质，普通人也会中招。
生活中绝大多数败血症，都源于被我们忽视的微小感染，常见诱因主要有四类：
微小伤口感染：皮肤破损、擦伤、痘痘挤压、蚊虫叮咬、甲沟炎等，细菌从创口入侵，未及时消毒处理，悄悄扩散入血；
呼吸道、消化道隐匿感染：反复咽痛、感冒、肠胃炎、腹痛腹泻，看似小毛病，免疫力下降时，感染会持续加重；
过度劳累、免疫力透支：这是青壮年突发脓毒症的核心诱因。长期熬夜、高强度工作、频繁奔波、过度劳累，会直接导致免疫系统“罢工”，原本可控的轻微感染，一夜之间全面爆发；这也是贴合温岚的关键诱因：艺人长期高压工作、频繁演出奔波、作息不规律，身体长期处于疲劳透支状态，免疫力大幅下降，给了病菌可乘之机。
口腔、泌尿系统感染：牙周炎、智齿发炎、尿路感染反复拖延、泌尿系结石等也是临床常见的败血症源头。
重点提醒：败血症从来不是“突然得病”，而是小感染拖延、免疫力崩盘共同导致的。
It is warned that sepsis is often caused by infections that initially appear minor, including untreated skin wounds, respiratory or digestive tract infections, urinary tract infections, dental inflammation and urinary stones.
预防做好这些事
People are advised to seek medical attention promptly if they develop a persistent fever, lethargy or other signs of infection. Strengthening immunity through exercise and nutrition, maintaining good hygiene, treating wounds properly, and paying close attention to high-risk groups such as the elderly, infants and immunocompromised individuals are also considered key preventive measures.
