Hello,
In case septicemia with multiorgon dysfunction there's is altered sensorium (means difficult to identify and communicate with attendees) with liver dysfunction is possible. It may takes time to recover. Up to 10-30% of septicemia patients not able to recover.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
