چکیده
Methods We studied the role of these biomarkers with clustered gram-positive and gram-negative bacteremia in patients hospitalized in Intensive care Unit over a period of 2 years (2011-2013), they were measured within the 24 hours after the onset of severe sepsis or septic shock. The PCT was analyzed by immunoassay (Vidas, Brahms), lactate and CRP was measured in DIMENSION RXL SIEMENS and blood culture was made in BACTEC-9240 blood culture system (Becton Dickinson). The program used for the data processing and statistical analysis was SPSS 15.0
