From Albert Donnay
Sepsis is indeed a monster, but it need not be a killer (2 April, p 38). What is so frustrating about it is not that “treatments currently available are inadequate”, but that most doctors are not aware that an extremely effective treatment is already available. It is hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and peer-reviewed reports of its success in curing severe sepsis date back at least 40 years.
