Article Synopsis
- Sepsis is a serious condition caused by the body's extreme response to infection, impacting organ function.
- A study assessed the effectiveness of presepsin (P-SEP) in predicting death risk in sepsis patients upon ICU admission, alongside other inflammatory markers like CRP, PCT, and IL-6.
- Findings revealed that none of these markers, including P-SEP, were reliable indicators for predicting mortality, but higher levels were associated with positive microbiological tests for infections.
