Life-threatening infection impairs bloodflow to the gut, thereby causing less delivery of oxygen. This leads to increased formation of lactic acid.
The investigators hypothesize, that the more serious the condition, the higher the concentration of lactic acid will be, thus relating to the risk of multiple organ failure or death.
