Serum procalcitonin for the early recognition of nosocomial infection in the critically ill patients: a preliminary report

BACKGROUND: The usefulness of procalcitonin (PCT) measurement in critically ill medical patients with suspected nosocomial infection is unclear. The aim of the study was to assess PCT value for the early diagnosis of bacterial nosocomial infection in selected critically ill patients. METHODS: An obs...
