Baxter Sponsored Webinar: Is Your Septic Shock Toxic? Understanding Endotoxins & Potential Treatments
Includes a Live Web Event on 02/18/2025 at 11:00 AM (PST)
Webinar Description:
Endotoxin plays a prominent role in the pathogenesis of sepsis and often comes from the gut and the idea of neutralizing its detrimental capacities. All Gram-negative bacteria have a cell wall made up of endotoxins and can activate the immune system in many ways at low or toxic level. Eight out of 12 of the most dangerous bacteria cited by the World Health Organization to encourage treatment strategies are gram negative species. In addition to delving into early recognition and treatment of sepsis using the bundles, this sponsored session will explore recognition of endotoxin and innovative treatment options.
No CE credits are offered for this sponsored webinar. Content was determined by the sponsor.
