Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Hospital Onset Bloodstream Infections (HOBSI) at a Large Health System

Did you know that COVID-19 patients are 3.5 times more likely to develop a hospital onset bloodstream infection? Many of these infections originate from gram-negative bacteria (escherichia coli, pseudomonas aeruginosa, klebisella pneumoniae).

Association between Procalcitonin and Acute Kidney Injury in Patients with Bacterial Septic Shock

Did you know that procalcitonin (PCT) is associated with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) from septic shock? Endotoxin adsorption with Alteco LPS Adsorber can result in reduced PCT levels.

Endotoxin and Cytokine Sequential Hemoadsorption in Septic Shock and Multi-Organ Failure

This case report describes how endotoxin adsorption and cytokine removal can be complementary. “Rapid control of the inflammatory response, modulating not only the inducing stimulus but also the inflammatory mediators, can achieve an early improvement.”

Epidemiology and Costs of Postsepsis Morbidity, Nursing Care Dependency, and Mortality in Germany, 2013 to 2017

New study reveals burden of post-sepsis morbidity is larger than previously thought.

Long term sepsis readmission, mortality and cause of death following Gram negative bloodstream infection: a propensity matched observational linkage study.

Gram-negative blood stream infections found to have higher mortality and long-term risk of readmission for sepsis and sepsis as a contributing cause of death.

Severe COVID-19-associated sepsis is different from classical sepsis induced by pulmonary infection with carbapenem-resistant klebsiella pneumonia (CrKP)

On the differences between bacterial sepsis and sepsis caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

P096 Lipopolysaccharide-binding systems in patients with SARS-COV-19 infection having various degrees of severity

Endotoxin believed to have a role in the inflammation that develops in SARS-CoV-19 infections.

Sepsis in Trauma: A Deadly Complication

Did you know that sepsis is a major cause of morbidity after trauma?

Diagnostic and Prognostic Implications of Endotoxemia in Critical Illness: Results of the MEDIC Study

High endotoxin levels correlate with higher mortality and can be associated with both gram-negative and -positive infections. Increased endotoxin levels at ICU admission significantly associated with development of severe sepsis.

Endotoxemia in Critically Ill Patients with COVID-19

Did you know that endotoxemia can be present in critically ill patients with COVID-19, independent of superimposed gram-negative infections? A leaky gut barrier might contribute to endotoxin translocation. Study observes elevated endotoxin activity in 75% of critically ill patients with COVID-19 – and higher acute kidney injury rates.

Risk factors and mortality associated with multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacterial infection in adult patients with abdominal surgery

Did you know that bacterial infections represent the most important cause of morbidity after major abdominal surgery? Multi-drug resistant, gram-negative bacteria are strongly associated with mortality (43% in 30 days).

Sepsis – an ED perspective. Sepsis Alert & Biomarkers

Are blood cultures at the emergency department necessary? Yes, they may save lives.
