Sep-Scan: A Faster Way to Detect Sepsis The Problem: Sepsis is a medical emergency that, if not detected in time, can lead to multiple organ failure and death. In fact, 54% of child deaths are linked to sepsis. Traditional diagnosis is slow—it requires drawing at least 5 ml of blood, transporting it to a lab, and waiting 24-72 hours for results. If doctors need to monitor treatment effectiveness, they must repeat the process, delaying critical care. A Breakthrough Solution: Fast Sense Innovations, founded by Preeti Joshi, Harish Joshi, and Sailendra Mishra, set out to change that. Initially focused on liver cancer detection, the team pivoted when Preeti’s young son battled sepsis, making her realize the urgency of faster diagnostics. Their solution? Sep-Scan—a rapid test that detects sepsis in just 20 minutes. Unlike traditional methods, Sep-Scan tests all key biomarkers in one go, identifies effective antibiotics immediately, requires minimal blood, and is significantly more affordable. 🔗 Read the full journey here: https://lnkd.in/gsabr4DZ FastSense Innovations National Chemical Laboratory Premnath Venugopalan Preeti Nigam Joshi #sepsis #sepsisdetection #earlydetection #pointofcarediagnotics #rapiddiagnostics
