SuPAR - A future prognostic biomarker in emergency medicine
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Efficient triage in the Emergency Departments (ED) is important to identify patients in need of urgent care. Biomarker measurements may aid these clinical decisions. suPAR, soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor, is a non-specific biomarker reflecting inflammation and is a strong prognostic marker for several diseases. This study investigated suPAR’s predictive capacity to identify highand low-risk patients in the Emergency Department.

Soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) in the emergency department: An update
Background: The biomarker soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is an indicator of inflammation which is increased in a variety of chronic and acute disease states. Its most promising application in the emergency setting is to aid in the prognostic stratification of patients by identifying those at high risk of deterioration. This is a narrative review of studies evaluating t...

The soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) has been suggested as a biomarker that reflects immune cell activation. In critically ill patients, several independent investigations have reported elevated suPAR in conditions of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), bacteriemia, sepsis, and septic shock, in which high circulating suPAR levels indicated an unfavorable prog...

OBJECTIVE Soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is an inflammatory biomarker associated with presence and progression of disease and with increased risk of mortality. We aimed to evaluate the unspecific biomarker suPAR as a prognostic marker in patients admitted to acute care. METHODS This registry-based retrospective cohort study included 4343 consecutively admitted patien...

BACKGROUND Several biomarkers have shown to carry prognostic value beyond current triage algorithms and may aid in initial risk stratification of patients in the emergency department (ED). It has yet to be established if information provided by biomarkers can be used to prevent serious complications or deaths. Our aim is to determine whether measurement of the blood level of the biomarker solub...
متن کاملsuPAR as a prognostic biomarker in sepsis
Sepsis is the clinical syndrome derived from the host response to an infection and severe sepsis is the leading cause of death in critically ill patients. Several biomarkers have been tested for use in diagnosis and prognostication in patients with sepsis. Soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) levels are increased in various infectious diseases, in the blood and also in ...
