Endotoxin removal
Inside the Alteco LPS Adsorber, a tailor-made synthetic peptide binds to Lipid A; the toxic part of endotoxin. By adsorbing harmful levels of endotoxin from the patient’s bloodstream during extracorporeal treatment in the ICU, the Alteco LPS Adsorber breaks the chain of immune system over-reactions that can spiral into septic shock. This can turn the course of sepsis and stabilize the patient’s hemodynamic parameters in 2 hours. 2
Take endotoxin out of the picture

Early treatment start
High levels of endotoxin activity are associated with organ failure and death. 3 Therefore, starting treatment early is important. Use the Alteco LPS Adsorber to counteract the critical and life-threatening part of the sepsis process. Remove endotoxin from the bloodstream to regain control over the systemic failure and stabilize the patient in the acute situation.
Treatment results and clinical benefits
Post treatment, patients usually demonstrate a reduction in endotoxin, procalcitonin and lactate levels, a reduction or elimination of vasopressor support, stability and improvement in hemodynamic parameters as well as SOFA score.
Applications

Preventive endotoxin removal in cardiac surgery
Endotoxin from gram-negative bacteria is a potent trigger of the inflammatory response, and endotoxemia is known to occur in cardiac surgery using extracorporeal circulation.
Sepsis in COVID-19 ICU patients
Learn more about Alteco LPS Adsorber for treating sepsis and septic shock in COVID-19 ICU patients, and the rationale for removing endotoxin.
Removing the threat
Our mission is to safely stabilize patients through extracorporeal endotoxin elimination, turning the course of sepsis before septic shock occurs.
