The Immune Game Changer: Inside the Seraph Filter - Episode 248

Gladden Longevity Podcast -- formerly Living Beyond 120

Summary

Dr. Lakhmir Chawla, an intensivist and nephrologist, discusses his background and the development of a vasopressor drug. He explains the functionality of a Seraph filter, hemoprofusion device that attracts and removes pathogens from the bloodstream and allows the immune system to focus on recovery. It has been used successfully in the treatment of COVID-19, sepsis, and other infections, such as Lyme disease. The filter has also shown promise in removing circulating tumor cells and may have applications in cancer treatment. A case study on an adenoviral infection demonstrates the effectiveness of the filter in treating specific infections. The conversation also explores the intersection of longevity and critical care medicine, highlighting the potential of the filter in optimizing recovery for critically ill patients with an excellent safety profile that provides clinicians with a tool to try more treatments without significant side effects.

Takeaways

• The filter can be a valuable tool in immune support, allowing the immune system to take over and fight infections.
• It has potential applications in chronic infections, tick-borne illnesses, and cancer treatment by removing circulating tumor cells.
• The filter has a good safety profile and can be a valuable tool in restoring the immune system's equilibrium and optimizing recovery.
• Supporting the immune system and optimizing its function are crucial in achieving better health outcomes.
