A new blood test could quickly diagnose those at risk of sepsis and bring a 'paradigm shift' in treatment, according to early results from a clinical trial. The "low–cost" test takes just 45 minutes ...

Fast identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (fast ID/AST) for sepsis has the potential to prevent approximately 84,400 sepsis cases and 36,200 sepsis-related deaths in the US each ...

Our immune systems can respond swiftly to an infection. But when the immune response is excessive or uncontrolled, it can cause a life-threatening condition known as sepsis. Any infection can lead to ...

Canadian scientists have developed a blood test and portable device that can determine the onset of sepsis faster and more accurately than existing methods. Published today in Nature Communications, ...

The immune system is generally a pro at fighting off microbial infections. But sometimes it goes rogue, turning itself on the body’s own organs and tissues, resulting in a life-threating condition ...

During this webinar, we will provide an overview of the current landscape of sepsis management and the impact of rapid culture-independent diagnostics on healthcare systems. We will present the best ...

In a potential paradigm change for sepsis diagnostics, a new test predicted sepsis soon after infection in mice -- well before blood clotting and organ failure -- enabling early antibiotic treatment ...

Researchers found that a new blood test for sepsis could save lives and money. Sepsis is a life-threatening medical emergency that occurs when an infection causes a chain reaction throughout the body ...
