Simply Outpace Sepsis

What is Sepsis?

Fast Facts

The Quiet Killer

Sepsis is the #1 cause of death in hospitals, taking the lives of 270,000 people every year in the United States, which is more than opioid overdoses, prostate cancer and breast cancer combined.1

Rapid Mortality

Mortality from sepsis increases as much as 8% for every hour that treatment is delayed. As many as 80% of sepsis deaths could be prevented with rapid diagnosis and treatment – making early detection essential.2

$38B+ Every Single Year

Sepsis related healthcare costs in the U.S. are astronomical – something we can help dramatically reduce with consistent early detection.3
