I think you mean, Sepsis IN blood. This a very dangerous and often deadly condition. It is a microbial infection that infiltrates your blood and slowly poisions you as your blood circulates.

If you mean "What is sepsis?" it's infection. But what you REALLY mean is "What is septicemia?" This is a systemic infection in which pathogens are present in circulating blood, having spread from an infection in any part of the body. It's diagnosed by blood cultures and aggressively treated with antibiotics.

It used to be called blood poisoning. I was hospitalized with it. A cut on my finger let germs into my system and you could see it running up the vessels of my arm.
