Answers: She died of gram negative sepsis secondary to her UTI. The weaker a patient is, the faster the infection moves from localized to generalized.
An urinary Tract infection should not be the cause of death. If left untreated it can and will effect the kidneys. Once the kidneys are infected the rest of the body brakes down - Your body may retain excess fluid and not make enough red blood cells. This is called kidney failure.
