Excerpt

Sepsis, a leading cause of death in critical care patients, is the result of complex interactions between the infecting microorganisms and the host responses that influence clinical outcomes [1]. Reliable biochemical markers that enable early diagnosis are still needed. A new marker, presepsin (soluble CD14 subtype, sCD14-ST) is a circulating fragment of 13 kDa of soluble CD14 that originates from the cleavage of the CD14 expressed on the surface membranes of monocytes/macrophages. sCD14-ST has been shown to increase significantly in patients with sepsis [2]. In our study we compare diagnostic performance of presepsin, C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT). …
