Biomarkers for Sepsis
Bloodstream infections are a major concern because of high levels of antibiotic consumption and of the increasing prevalence of antimicrobial resistance. Bacteraemia is identified in a small percentage of patients with signs and symptoms of sepsis. Biomarkers are widely used in clinical practice and they are useful for monitoring the infectious process. Procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protei...
متن کاملSepsis biomarkers: a review
INTRODUCTION Biomarkers can be useful for identifying or ruling out sepsis, identifying patients who may benefit from specific therapies or assessing the response to therapy. METHODS We used an electronic search of the PubMed database using the key words "sepsis" and "biomarker" to identify clinical and experimental studies which evaluated a biomarker in sepsis.

متن کاملBiomarkers of Sepsis
Sepsis remains a leading cause of death in critically ill patients, despite efforts to improve patient outcome. Thus far, no magic drugs exist for severe sepsis and septic shock. Instead, early diagnosis and prompt initial management such as early goal-directed therapy are key to improve sepsis outcome. For early detection of sepsis, biological markers (biomarkers) can help clinicians to distin...
متن کاملBiomarkers in Pediatric Sepsis
Sepsis is a leading killer of both adult and pediatric patients, and delays in recognition and treatment significantly increase the risk of morbidity and mortality [2, 3]. The concept of early detection serves as the foundation for the search for clinically viable indicators of severe sepsis and septic shock – hence the interest in sepsis biomarkers. A biomarker is defined as the biological par...
