ABSTRACT
Objective To examine whether presepsin level can serve as a distinguishing marker between G-bacteria and G+ bacteria,fungal infection in sepsis patients.Methods A prospective observation study was conducted on the consecutive patients with positive bacterial cultures in intensive care unit (ICU) from June 2017 to November 2018.The patients were divided into the G-group,G+ group and fungal group.Blood samples were collected upon admission to measure the levels of presepsin and procalcitonin (PCT).Results (1) Of the 156 patients met the inclusion criteria.96 (62% G-rods,25 (16%) G+ microbes,and 35 (22%) fungi were detected.(2) Presepsin concentrations were significantly higher in the G-group compared with the G+ and fungal groups (P =0.000).(3) Presepsin level has a higher accuracy in differentiating G-sepsis from Gram+ and fungal sepsis than PCT level [area under the curve (AUC):0.809 vs 0.712].The AUC value of a combination of presepsin and PCT level was significantly larger than that of presepsin level alone in differentiating G-sepsis from Gram+ and fungal sepsis (AUC:0.866 vs 0.809).Conclusions In contrast to PCT,presepsin is a good discriminative biomarker in different infections.
