Urosepsis is lethal. As a young ER tech I saw loads of patients with this all the time. Mostly in older people.

Yep, my mom almost died from it
Not the usual symptoms, as when you’re younger
Very common in elderly, especially when incontinence kicks in

That happened to my Grandmother. She died from it.

And yet there is a treatment for sepsis called Cytosorb but all the politics, money and corruption make it years and many deaths before something can get by the FDA and their owners Big Pharma. If Big Pharma isn’t the developer good luck.

Cytosorb (blood filtration cartridge used via hemodialysis machines) has approval in Europe for ticagrelor removal (blood thinner) prior to cardiac surgery. And emergency use protocol in Covid patients for Cytokine Storm in the USA, Canada and other parts of the world. BUT it has shown marked improvement in Sepsis patients in limited studies.

Yup. I see all the time in the ER I work in. I feel so bad for the poor dears.
