ABSTRACT
Procalcitonin(PCT), an important inflammatory suggestive marker of bacterial infection, has been widely used for the diagnosis of infectious diseases and guidance of antibiotic therapy in adults and children.Recent studies have shown that PCT, as a highly sensitive and specific inflammatory indicator, also has promising applications in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis, disease judgement, prognosis analysis, and antibiotic guidance of neonatal sepsis.Early PCT in neonates is characterized by physiological elevation, and it is important to understand the changing characteristics and influencing factors of PCT in neonates for an accurate clinical judgement of the disease.Therefore, we review the application value of PCT in neonatal sepsis.
