Despite continuous monitoring progress, septic shock remains the main cause of death in Intensive Care Units. Septic stress triggers a complex array of biological modifications resulting in an acquired disease of intermediary metabolism whose main characteristic is an inefficient cellular use of glucidic, lipidic and protidic substrates together with oxygen. The purpose of this review is to present metabolic disturbances observed during sepsis and septic shock.

D005960 Glucosides A GLYCOSIDE that is derived from GLUCOSE. Glucoside
D006019 Glycolysis A metabolic process that converts GLUCOSE into two molecules of PYRUVIC ACID through a series of enzymatic reactions. Energy generated by this process is conserved in two molecules of ATP. Glycolysis is the universal catabolic pathway for glucose, free glucose, or glucose derived from complex CARBOHYDRATES, such as GLYCOGEN and STARCH.
