Abionic SA received U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance for its in vitro diagnostic Capsule pancreatic stone protein (PSP) sepsis test. Produced by the pancreas and immune cells, PSP provides an early biomarker for sepsis that could push back detection of deadly condition by 24 to 48 hours.
Implementation of Flosonics Medical Inc.’s Flopatch reduced sepsis-associated mortality more than 80% in a California public hospital, a case study showed. A wearable Doppler ultrasound device, Flopatch continuously assesses blood flow to guide fluid delivery and resuscitation in critically ill patients.
Researchers from Southern Medical University have divulged the discovery and preclinical characterization of novel PDE4 inhibitors for the treatment of hepatic sepsis. Synthesis and optimization of a series of 7-alkoxybenzofurans led to the identification of compound [I] as the lead PDE4 inhibitor, with PDE4B and PDE4D IC50 values of 10.0 and 15.2 nM, respectively.
Quantamatrix Inc. is advancing an Ultra-Rapid Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing sepsis diagnostic test, touted as having the world’s fastest all-in-one antimicrobial technology, to reduce sepsis diagnosis time from days to an average of 13 hours.
Algodx AB received U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance for its sepsis detection software Navoy CDS. The technology, which analyzes patient data, has the potential to improve patient outcomes as it enables clinicians to detect and treat sepsis earlier.
Researchers at Leiden University have synthesized semisynthetic guanidino lipoglycopeptides with in vitro and in vivo activity gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcusaureus.
Agilemd Inc. received U.S. FDA clearance for its Ecart clinical deterioration suite, an artificial intelligence-powered software as a medical device that uses a machine learning algorithm to continuously evaluate the risk of a hospitalized patient’s death or transfer to intensive care based on 97 real-time variables.
New research has pinpointed gene signatures that determine what immune responses will be activated in the development of sepsis, pointing to novel targets and opening the way for the stratification of clinical trials and for patients to be treated on the basis of their immune response, rather than their symptoms.
