Hello

For a patient with sepsis due to meningitis, and who has mild-moderate 
altered mental status as their only organ dysfunction (lactate, BP, 
Creatine, etc all normal), would you consider this to be "severe sepsis", 
or would you require end organ involvement distant from the infection 
source?

Thanks very much,

Joe
