Background: Serum procalcitonin (PCT) is considered to be a sensitive marker for the early recognition of severe infection. The aim of this study was to review the diagnostic accuracy of serum procalcitonin levels to predict the risk of septic shock and mortality in patients with secondary peritonitis.
Methods: We carried out a retrospective review of patients (November 2010 to November 2012) admitted to the surgical intensive care unit (ICU) with secondary peritonitis classified into localised peritonitis (LP) or diffuse peritonitis (DP) groups.
