Sepsis can happen when the body has an extreme response to an infection. It can become life-threatening quickly, so knowing the warning signs matters.

In this video, Dr. Sydney Hester, an infectious disease doctor with our broader HCA Healthcare network, shares what to watch for and when to get emergency care.

At HCA Healthcare, our Sepsis Prediction and Optimization of Therapy (SPOT) system continuously monitors vital signs, lab results, nursing reports and other data to detect often subtle changes in a patient's condition and alert clinicians to signs of sepsis so they can take appropriate action.

If you or someone you love may be experiencing signs of sepsis, don't wait. Call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room: https://bit.ly/4ql9ruy

If you're expecting a baby, congratulations! 🤰During this exciting journey, it helps to know about conditions that could affect your health, including placenta accreta spectrum, or PAS. This condition happens when the placenta attaches too deeply into the wall of the uterus, which can lead to serious bleeding during delivery.

At Medical City Healthcare, our high-risk pregnancy teams support patients with complex pregnancy needs through access to experienced OB-GYNs and maternal-fetal medicine specialists. As part of HCA Healthcare, our caregivers are connected to a broader network that delivers more than 200,000 babies each year, generating insights that help improve outcomes for moms and babies.

Watch as Dr. Robert Cohen, an OB-GYN and medical director of the Placenta Accreta Program for our broader HCA Healthcare network, breaks down what PAS is, who may be at higher risk and why early diagnosis and specialized care matter.
