“We agree with the decision of the system, hence we dismiss this
appeal. Postpartum septicemia is an acute infectious disease of
the puerperium resulting from the entrance into the blood of
bacteria usually streptococci and their toxins which cause
dissolution of the blood, degenerative changes in the organs and
the symptoms of intoxication. The cause of this condition in the
instant case was the infected vaginal lacerations resulting from
the decedent’s delivery of her child which took place at home. The
alleged accident in school could not have been the cause of
septicemia, which in this case is clearly caused by factors not
inherent in employment or in the working conditions of the
deceased.” (pp. 1415, Rollo.)

from a compensable injury (82 Am. Jur. 132). Where the primary
injury is shown to have arisen in the course of employment, every
natural consequence that flows from the injury likewise arises out
of the employment, unless it is the result of an independent
intervening cause attributable to claimant’s own negligence or
misconduct (I Larson Workmen’s Compensation Law 3279
[1972]). Simply stated, all the medical consequences and sequels
that flow from the primary injury are compensable. (Ibid.)”
