Accelerate Diagnostics has pledged to match the first $10,000 gifted to Sepsis Alliance on #GivingTuesday to help raise awareness of sepsis as an often preventable medical emergency.
Sepsis is the body's life-threatening response to infection that can affect anyone and lead to death. According to the Sepsis Alliance, the leading U.S. organization dedicated to this cause, as many as forty percent of patients diagnosed with septic shock do not survive. Early recognition and appropriate antibiotics are keys to treating sepsis.
“We’re glad to support this important worldwide effort to raise awareness of this life-threatening emergency that is so often misunderstood,” said Larry Mehren, President & CEO of Accelerate Diagnostics. “The commitment from the team at Sepsis Alliance to create meaningful improvements for patients is evident and aligns well with our own to make life-saving decisions easier for clinicians and safer for patients afflicted with serious infections.”

About Sepsis Alliance
Sepsis Alliance is the nation’s leading sepsis advocacy organization, dedicated to saving lives by raising awareness of sepsis as a medical emergency. A 501(c)(3) organization, Sepsis Alliance was founded by Dr. Carl Flatley after the sudden, unnecessary death of his daughter Erin to a disease he had never even heard of. Sepsis Alliance produces and distributes educational materials for patients, families and health providers on sepsis prevention, early recognition and treatment. The organization also offers support to patients, sepsis survivors, and family members through its sepsis.org website which receives more than 1.5 million visits each year. The organization founded Sepsis Awareness Month in 2011, and works with partners to host community outreach events across North America. Since Sepsis Alliance began its mission, sepsis awareness has increased threefold, from 19% to 58%.
