Did you know that sepsis is now believed to kill more people than cancer? Sepsis is the body’s overwhelming and life-threatening inflammatory response to infection that can lead to tissue damage, organ failure, amputations and death. It is one of the most common causes of death in modern intensive care. Our mission is to safely stabilize patients through extracorporeal endotoxin elimination, turning the course of sepsis before septic shock occurs. Alteco Medical AB from Lund, Sweden is an ISO 13485 certified medical device company founded in 2002. We offer a unique technology for blood purification during extracorporeal treatment. Our solution for extracorporeal endotoxin elimination helps hospitals manage endotoxemia and sepsis in the ICU, and to avoid these conditions post-operatively. Our product the Alteco LPS Adsorber breaks the chain of immune system over-reactions that can spiral into sepsis and septic shock by adsorbing harmful levels of endotoxin from the patient’s bloodstream. Alteco LPS Adsorber is safely used to stabilize the patient’s hemodynamic parameters with no contraindications, no reported side effects, or serious adverse events. Available on the global market since 2007, the product is the only class IIa, CE-marked medical device for specific endotoxin adsorption.
