Procalcitonin: A Reliable Marker for the Diagnosis of Neonatal Sepsis
Objective(s) In the last few years, serum procalcitonin has been proposed as an early marker of infections in neonates, with varying results. In this study, we aimed to investigate the value of procalcitonin, and C- reactive protein in establishing the diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. Materials and Methods Blood samples were collected at admission from 69 neonates with suspected infection (admi...
متن کاملSensitivity And Specificity Of Procalcitonin In Diagnosis Of Neonatal Sepsis
Background and Objective: According to the fact that neonatal infection is a challenging diagnosis field, several studies have tried to test sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic tests. This study was conducted to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of procalcitonin (PCT) as a single early marker of neonatal sepsis. Materials and Methods: In this study, 150 neonates admitted to NIC...
متن کاملSignificance of Serum Procalcitonin Level in the Early Diagnosis of Neonatal Sepsis
Background: Sepsis in neonates presents itself with non-specific clinical features which makes early diagnosis difficult. However, procalcitonin (PCT) and other inflammatory markers have recently been considered as sensitive markers for the early detection of neonatal sepsis. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the diagnostic value of PCT in the early detection of neonatal sepsis an...
متن کاملRole of Procalcitonin in the Early Diagnosis of Neonatal Sepsis
Objectives: To evaluate the specificity of Procalcitonin (ProCT) as marker of neonatal infection. Materials and Methods: The study includes 131 newborns admitted to the NICU. ProCT was determined in 5 groups of newborn with Sepsis, Asphyxia, Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS), Localized Infection and in uninfected patients. Results: Serum ProCT values were significatively high in sepsis group ...
متن کاملProcalcitonin as a Marker for Early Diagnosis of Sepsis
Sepsis is a critical condition often caused by bacterial infection and associated with death and mortality. The prognosis of this disease depends on early diagnosis and proper treatment. Definite diagnosis of sepsis is positive blood culture and this test needs a long time to perform, so other biochemical parameters such as procalcitonin serum level has been introduced. To determine sensitivity...
