Procalcitonin Detection Reagent(PCT) Place Of Orig And Test Steps
PCT Overview
Calcitonin (PCAT) is a glycoprotein discovered by assicot et al. In 1993. It is not elevated in non infective inflammation caused by the stimulation of bacterial toxins and inflammatory cytokines. As an important indicator to distinguish bacteria from septicemia, PCAT is widely used at home and abroad.
Clinical Significance Of PCT
- The first choice marker for sepsis diagnosis
- Differential diagnosis of bacterial infection and viral infection
- Guide the use of antibiotics
| PCT concentration (ng/ml) | Clinical significance | Disposal suggestions |
| <0.05 | Normal value | |
| 0.1~0.25 | Bacterial infection is unlikely | Antibiotics are not recommended |
| 0.25~0.5 | There is no systemic inflammatory reaction or mild and may be localized inflammation or local infection | It is recommended that you find the cause of infection or other causes of PCT rise and use antibiotics |
| 0.5~2 | Moderate systemic inflammatory reactions, possibly other conditions such as infectious or inflammatory trauma, major surgery, cardiogenic shock | It is recommended that you identify the possible infectious factors. If you find an infection, we recommend that you check PCT from 6 to 24 hours |
| 2-10 | The most likely cause is sepsis, severe sepsis, or septic shock. High risk of organ dysfunction | We recommend that you check PCT every day. PCT is high (4D): Rethinking the treatment of sepsis |
| ≧10 | Almost all of them are severe sepsis or septic shock, often accompanied by organ failure and high death risk | We recommend that you monitor PCT daily to evaluate the therapeutic effect |
PCT performance index
| Detection range | sample size | Sample type | Test time |
| 0.1~100ng/mL | 60μl | Whole blood / serum / plasma | 15min |
