C-reactive protein (CRP) in early diagnosis of neonatal septicemia.
The usefulness of CRP in early detection of neonatal septicemia/meningitis and urinary tract infection was studied in a neonatal unit using a semiquantitative latex-agglutination as a rapid screening method, and electroimmuno assay as reference method for CRP determination. In 94% of non-infected infants CRP was less than or equal to 15 mg/l and 82% had CRP less than 10 mg/l up to 3 days of age...
متن کاملEvaluation Of Serum C-reactive Protein In Diagnosis And Prognosis Of Neonatal Septicemia
Background: Neonatal sept icemia is an overwhelming systemic infection due to gain access of pathogenic bacteria in the blood stream of neonate. C-reactive protein production is very early and sensitive response to microbial infections and has highest sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive accuracy in cases of neonatal septicemia. Methods: Total 50 clinically suspected cases and 25 he...

متن کاملImmediate Diagnosis of Early Onset Sepsis in Premature Newborns by Measurement of Cord C-Reactive Protein and Interleukin-6
Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between early onset sepsis and increased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in cord plasma. Methods: A prospective study was conducted in 141 premature infants delivered with gestational ages of 26-35 weeks. IL-6 and CPR were measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay in the cord plasma of the neonates. ...
