“…Another, larger study found the opposite, with the median CRP concentration 24 hours postoperatively being higher in dogs undergoing ovariohysterectomy than in dogs undergoing orthopaedic procedures 9 . In human studies, no correlation has been found between serum CRP concentration and severity of injury or survival 15 . In other words CRP appears to be a sensitive indicator of trauma but cannot be used as a reliable quantitative measure of trauma.…”

“…The synthesis of positive APPs is stimulated by various proinflammatory cytokines in response to tissue injury or infection. The main stimulatory cytokines are interleukin-1, interleukin-6 and tumour necrosis factor alpha 10,15,24,29 . The exact functions of the APPs are not completely understood, but it is known that they regulate and coordinate the body's response to tissue injury.…”

“…The current end points used to guide resuscitation, such as blood pressure, urine output, heart rate, base deficit, and serum lactate levels, are global markers that may underestimate occult tissue hypoperfusion. In the future, more sensitive measures of tissue oxygenation involving polarographic or near-infrared technologies 65 and markers of inflammation and coagulation 66,67 that better reveal the physiologic condition of a patient are likely to replace simple temporal distinctions. They will provide more accurate criteria with which to determine when a patient is ''ready'' for definitive internal fixation of a femoral shaft fracture or other major orthopaedic injuries.…”

“…First, injury severity may explain the results. Proinflammatory cytokine concentrations relate to the degree of tissue injury [44,100]. Although the injury may have been insufficient to stimulate specific cytokines detectably, the cumulative effect of cytokines may underlie detectable CRP production.…”
