ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value of procalcitonin(PCT),hypersensitive C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP),D-Dimer(DD)in the diagnosis and prognosis judgment of pulmonary embolism(PE). Methods A total of 201 patients were enrolled in the study since the PE diagnosis were made in hospital from JAN. 2013 to DEC. 2016,in which they were divided into high-risk group(n=52),intermediate-risk group(n=88),low-risk group (n = 61),cure-patient group (n = 67) and 36 normal individuals were selected respectively as a blank control group. Results The average of the PCT,Hs-CRP and DD level in the high,intermediate and low-risk group were significant difference comparing with the cure-patient and control group(P<0.05). Conclusions Teh concertration of PCT and Hs-CRP were associated with different risk stratification of PE. Combined with DD , the level of PCT and Hs-CRP can be used to evaluate the risk stratification of PE and help to judge prognosis and guide treatment.
