VolitionRx – On the cusp of a breakthrough in testing for sepsis

For Sepsis Awareness Month in September, Volition has produced a video to help increase global understanding of this devastating condition, defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host immune response to an infection.

Globally, sepsis is estimated to be contracted by about 50 million people, leading to more than 11 million deaths (c 25% mortality rate) each year. It accounts for 42% of global deaths of children under the age of five.

The condition can spread rapidly and cause multiple organ failure. Survivors can suffer life-altering consequences, with 50% left with the pathological condition of long-term sequelae.

Volition is undertaking studies to test its groundbreaking CE-marked technology as a diagnostic aid for sepsis and to monitor disease progression and treatment response.

To find out more about sepsis and Volition’s exciting work in this field, read Edison’s thematic report and watch this short video featuring Dr Andrew Retter, a consultant in intensive care specialising in sepsis. Let’s stop the rot.
