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 ...

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, ...

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 ...

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 ...
