Biomarkers Utility for Sepsis Patients Management

Abstract: Sepsis is a global problem in either developing or developed countries and it is expected that the number of patients with sepsis and septic shock will tremendously increase in next decades also because of the antibiotic resistance growing issue worldwide. Criteria for sepsis diagnosis and prognosis have been recently established, but still a further understanding of the role of biomarkers in this setting is needed. Better utilization of biomarkers such as white blood cell count, CRP, lactate, procalcitonin, p… Show more

“…Membrane CD14 is a co-receptor for endotoxin, and during systemic immunoinflammatory response, its soluble form is cleaved from immunocompetent cells like monocytes/macrophages (4). Procalcitonin is a 116-amino acid polypeptide precursor of calcitonin released by the C cells of thyroid gland (5).…”
