/ˈsɛpsəs/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin sepsis.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin sepsis (1644 or earlier) < ancient Greek σῆψις putrefaction, decay < σήπειν to rot (see septic adj.¹) + -σις -sis suffix. Compare earlier septic adj.¹

†1. A type of digestion said to occur in the stomach (perhaps involving supposed decomposition or putrefaction of food). Obsolete. rare.

2. Originally: the process of putrefaction, esp. when (supposedly) occurring in the body of a person or animal (now historical). In later use: infection with bacteria or other pathogens, esp. when blood-borne or disseminated; spec. a life-threatening complication occurring in infections, resulting from imperfectly regulated immune responses and characterized by dysfunction of the cardiovascular and various other organ systems.
