Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome

Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS) is a serious condition where the body's organs—such as the lungs, heart, kidneys, and liver—stop working properly, often due to severe illness or injury. When the body reacts to infection, trauma, or other stressors, inflammation can become widespread, damaging organs. As more organs are affected, their failure can lead to life-threatening complications. Prompt medical treatment is vital to support organ function and address the underlying cause, aiming to prevent further deterioration and improve chances of recovery.
