“…The level of PCT in the circulation system of healthy people is lower than (0.01 µg/L) and it increases in a reaction of proinflammatory of bacterial infection. The PCT has been widely tested for diagnosis and suiTable use as antibiotic therapy in both children and adults for different infectious diseases in various researches in different countries [5][6][7]. The PCT has been studied as biomarker to assist diagnosis and aid prognostication in bacterial infections and sepsis [4] [8][9][10][11].…”

Association between Procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) and burn injury was evaluated in 80 burned patients from Al-Kindy and Imam Ali hospitals in Baghdad-Iraq. Patients were divided into two groups, survivor group 56 (70%) and non-survivor group 24 (30%). PCT was estimated using (Human Procalcitonin ELISA kit) provided by RayBio/USA while CRP was performed using a latex agglutination kit from Chromatest (Spain). Our results declared that the mean of Total Body Surface Area (TBSA %) affected were 63.5% range (36% 95%) in non-survivor patients, while 26.5% range (10% 70%) in survivor patients. There is a significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.00), the higher mean percentage of TBSA has a significant association with mortality. Serum PCT and CRP were measured at the three times of sampling (within the first 48hr following admission, after 5 th days and after 10 th days). The mean of PCT serum concentrations in non-survivor group (2638 ± 3013pg/ml) were higher than that of survivor group (588 ± 364pg/ml). Significantly high levels of CRP were found between the survivor and non-survivor groups especially in the 10 th day of admission P=0.000, present study show that significant differences is found within the non-survivor group through the three times P= 0.01, while results were near to significant differences within survivor group through the three times (P= 0.05).
