Diagnostic Markers for Identifying Sepsis in Patients with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS): A Prospective Study

Abstract: Sepsis caused by infection remains a major cause of mortality and morbidity among children. Several inflammatory markers have failed to meet the requirements for early diagnosis of sepsis. We saw the potential value of measuring the total leukocyte count and the inflammatory markers C reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and interleukin (IL) 6 in patients with SIRS for early identifying of sepsis. Children with SIRS (n = 52) were included in a prospective study. Changes in the total leukocyte count and … Show more

“…Pavare J et al, demonstrated 50% positive culture. 15 In present study authors analyzed the acute phase reactants like CRP, procalcitonin in differentiating between culture positive and culture negative group at 0 hours and 24hours after admission. Procalcitonin had the best sensitivity and specificity among two.…”

“…12 Mengingat hasil kultur yang lama sementara penderita perlu penanganan yang cepat dan tepat agar tidak jatuh dalam keadaan yang lebih berat, maka perlu ada pemeriksaan yang dapat menentukan dengan cepat penyebab sepsisnya. 13 Petunjuk yang sering digunakan sebagai petanda sepsis antara lain procalcitonin (PCT) dan interleukin-6 (IL-6). 8,14,15 PCT merupakan prohormon calcitonin yang dihasilkan oleh sel C kelenjar tiroid, yang terdiri dari 116 asam amino dan 3 peptida.…”

“…4,5 Pada infeksi bakteri, terjadi pelepasan sitokin inflamasi, seperti tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-, Interleukin (IL)-1 , IL-8, dan IL-6, 6 yang akan mencetuskan produksi Creactive protein oleh hepatosit yang dapat ditemukan dalam darah. [7][8][9] C-reactive protein berperan penting pada respon imun innate dan telah dikenal merupakan salah satu petanda inflamasi. Individu tanpa inflamasi biasanya memiliki kadar CRP <1 mg/L, kadar CRP bisa meningkat sampai 100 kali lipat nilai normal pada kasus inflamasi akut, seperti infeksi, trauma, keganasan dan pembedahan.…”
