When Infection Turns Critical: Your Rapid Sepsis Detection Solution
That moment when a simple infection starts feeling different – the fever won’t break, your heart races, and you feel overwhelmingly unwell. These could be the warning signs of sepsis, a life-threatening medical emergency that requires immediate attention. At Oracle Genomics, we understand the fear and uncertainty that comes with potential sepsis, which is why we’ve developed our comprehensive Sepsis Panel Test to give you and your doctor the critical information needed for timely intervention.
Understanding Your Sepsis Panel Test
Sepsis occurs when your body’s response to an infection causes widespread inflammation, potentially leading to organ failure and death if not treated promptly. Our Sepsis Panel combines three crucial markers:
- Procalcitonin: A specific marker that rises rapidly in bacterial infections and sepsis
- C-Reactive Protein: Measures general inflammation levels in your body
- Blood Culture Analysis: Identifies the specific bacteria causing the infection
Using advanced ECLIA and immunoturbidimetry methods, we provide accurate, reliable results that your healthcare team can trust for making critical treatment decisions.
Who Should Consider This Critical Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these concerning symptoms, our Sepsis Panel could provide life-saving information:
- High fever that doesn’t respond to medication
- Rapid heart rate or breathing difficulties
- Confusion, dizziness, or extreme weakness
- Recent surgery, injury, or known infection
- Compromised immune system or chronic illness
- Elderly patients or young children with severe infections
Patients in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and across South Africa trust our rapid testing when every hour counts.
