ABSTRACT
Objective Too investigate the application value of procalcitonin(PCT)and high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)in early diagnosis of neonatal septicemia and disease condition assessment.Methods 48 patients with neonatal septicemia treated in the hospital from November 2011 to May 2013 were collected.The data of PCT,hs-CRP and blood culture were recorded and performed the comparative analysis with the serum PCT,hs-CRP detection results in contemporaneous 48 neonates without septicemia.Results The serum PCT and hs-CRP was 93.75% and 10.42% in the neonates with septicemia,which were signifi-cantly higher than 79.17% and 50% in the neonates without septicemia(P <0.05),the positive rate had statistical difference be-tween the two groups.Conclusion PCT and hs-CRP have remarkable change in the early stage of neonatal sepsis,the combination detection of serum PCT and hs-CRP can be used as the indicators for early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis,moreover the sensitivity and specificity of PCT for diagnosing neonatal septicemia are higher the those of hs-CRP,their combined detection can provide fast and accurate diagnostic basis for clinic.
