Interleukin-6 Kinetics can be Useful for Early Treatment Monitoring of Severe Bacterial Sepsis and Septic Shock

Early appropriate anti-microbial therapy is necessary to improve outcomes of septic patients. We describe 20 case histories of patients with severe bacterial sepsis regarding kinetics of several biomarkers. We found that interleukin-6 is able to predict survival and might be able to evaluate appropr...
