Presepsin (soluble CD14 subtype) and procalcitonin levels for mortality prediction in sepsis: data from the Albumin Italian Outcome Sepsis trial
INTRODUCTION Sepsis, a leading cause of death in critically ill patients, is the result of complex interactions between the infecting microorganisms and the host responses that influence clinical outcomes. We evaluated the prognostic value of presepsin (sCD14-ST), a novel biomarker of bacterial infection, and compared it with procalcitonin (PCT). METHODS This is a retrospective, case-control ...
متن کاملSerial Procalcitonin Predicts Mortality in Severe Sepsis Patients: Results From the Multicenter Procalcitonin MOnitoring SEpsis (MOSES) Study
OBJECTIVES To prospectively validate that the inability to decrease procalcitonin levels by more than 80% between baseline and day 4 is associated with increased 28-day all-cause mortality in a large sepsis patient population recruited across the United States. DESIGN Blinded, prospective multicenter observational clinical trial following an Food and Drug Administration-approved protocol. S...
متن کاملProcalcitonin: 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 کاملqSOFA for Identifying Sepsis Among Patients With Infection.
The identificationofpatientswithpossible sepsis isvitally important because timely recognition and appropriate, effective treatment substantially improves survival. Unlike some other life-threatening conditions (such as myocardial infarction), forwhichhighlyaccurate diagnostic tests are available, no rapid diagnostic tests are currently available to accurately identify patients with sepsis (or ...
متن کاملSepsis mortality prediction with the Quotient Basis Kernel
OBJECTIVE This paper presents an algorithm to assess the risk of death in patients with sepsis. Sepsis is a common clinical syndrome in the intensive care unit (ICU) that can lead to severe sepsis, a severe state of septic shock or multi-organ failure. The proposed algorithm may be implemented as part of a clinical decision support system that can be used in combination with the scores deployed...
