2. Stage II, also called decompensated or progressive; and
3. Stage III, also called irreversible.
In stage I, the body is able to compensate for the changes caused by the infection. In stage II, the body’s compensatory mechanisms begin to fail and organ dysfunction begins. In stage III, the changes in the body are irreversible and multiple organ failure can occur.

Inflammation is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants, and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators. The function of inflammation is to eliminate the initial cause of cell injury, clear out necrotic cells and tissues damaged from the original insult and the inflammatory process, and initiate tissue repair.
