Sepsis is a life-threatening complication of an infection.
If you or someone you look after has an infection and is very unwell, or not getting better, don't be afraid to ask 'could it be sepsis?'

Daptomycin combination therapy with either ceftaroline or fosfomycin is now recommended
in 2023 ESC guidelines
But, what is the evidence to support?
Getting to the heart of the matter - Are 2 agents really better than 1 for the treatment of staph IE?
