Sepsis is challenging, as presentations are heterogeneous and highly variable. Healthcare professionals are often tasked with making decisions for patients suspected of infection with incomplete evidence and insufficient tools. With sepsis, the most urgent question is whether the patient is having a dysregulated immune response to the infection. This is where the novel, FDA-cleared IntelliSep test comes in. IntelliSep interrogates white blood cells by utilizing host response technology to assess their activation state and provides a window into the patient’s potential for immune dysregulation - the crux of sepsis - in under 10 minutes. In this sponsored presentation, learn from providers who have utilized IntelliSep in clinical practice about how the test has supported their goal to optimize the early identification of sepsis, and helped them get the right care, to the right patient, at the right time.
