Utilidad de la proteína C reactiva (PCR) como biomarcador temprano predictivo de sepsis en comparación con el marcador procaalcitonina (PCT) en los pacientes del northospital de la ciudad de Quito abril - junio del 2014.
In this study performed in the year 2014, it was proposed to determine the CRP as a predictive biomarker for sepsis compared with procalcitonina; patients with sepsis criteria were taken and compared using the ROC curve (Receiver Operating Characteristic) to determine a cohort point of CRP in all pa...

| Resumo: | In this study performed in the year 2014, it was proposed to determine the CRP as a predictive biomarker for sepsis compared with procalcitonina; patients with sepsis criteria were taken and compared using the ROC curve (Receiver Operating Characteristic) to determine a cohort point of CRP in all patients with sepsis criteria and PCT indicating sepsis. In statistical, it was exposed that the cohort points obtained from the ROC curve, in the PCR it could be evaluated significant points 97 mg/L has a sensitivity of 58%, specificity of 57%, VPP 48 % and VPN 66 % and 181 mg/L has a sensitivity of 31%, and specificity of 78%, VPP 50% and VPN 62%. That is, the Procalcitonin is still the best biomarker for sepsis diagnosis, being PCR a biomarker of inflammation, which does not equal the PCT in diagnosing sepsis. |
