Sepsis rarely attracts the attention of the public, but it’s distressingly common: Every year, about 1.7 million U.S. adults develop this overreaction to infection — and more than 350,000 of them die. On this bonus episode of 20-Minute-Health-Talk, you’ll hear the stories of doctors and patients fighting against this subtle yet deadly condition, and how the battle led to a global alliance to combat the silent killer. You’ll also hear how pioneering research and lifesaving protocols developed at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research and Northwell Health have reduced sepsis-related deaths — both within their hospitals, throughout New York State, and around the world.
