New blood filter for sepsis: does it remove Life-Saving antibiotics?

NCT ID NCT06602245

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether a blood-filtering device called Efferon LPS removes antibiotics from the blood of people with sepsis. Sepsis is a severe infection that can lead to organ failure, and doctors sometimes use filters to clean the blood. The study included 30 patients and measured how much antibiotic was cleared by the filter. The goal was to see if the filter might accidentally reduce antibiotic levels, which could make treatment less effective.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Efferon LPS hemoperfusion device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors understand how to safely use the Efferon LPS device without reducing antibiotic effectiveness in sepsis patients.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. It only measures drug clearance, not patient outcomes.
