Selenium compounds like Sodiumselenite (selenase®) are used in sepsis patients to reduce mortality. In a double-blind, prospective study (SIC) study it could be demonstrated that high dose sodium selenite reduces the mortality rate for sepsis patients. The mortality rate among patients who were administered the drug was 42% as opposed to 57% for the control group.
