“Sepsis is a common disease, affecting approximately 49 million people worldwide each year, with nearly 11 million deaths. Time is crucial, as the survival rate decreases rapidly if treatment is delayed. If correct treatment is not administered promptly, sepsis can be fatal.

Even for survivors, long-term side effects are common, including intestinal problems or the risk of losing body parts. Sepsis patients typically have low oxygen levels in their blood, highlighting the need for innovative methods to increase systemic oxygen levels. This could potentially reduce the likelihood of a cytokine storm (CRS) and decrease the risk of losing body parts in those who survive sepsis.”
