Diagnostic tests of COVID-19 are an important part of the epidemic and patient management. Diagnostic molecular, serological and biochemical markers also give important information for the treatment and follow-up of the disease. As time passed, the importance of these data laboratory were better understood and it started to be used more widely in clinical practice. It is clear that severe COVID-19 disease is associated with a potent inflammatory response leading to multi-organ failure. Clinical laboratory plays a critical role in the evaluation of inflammatory markers as well as the close monitoring of potential organ failure indicators in intensive care units. With this article, laboratory data that guide the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 disease are tried to be considered as a whole.

COVID-19 Hastalığı Tanı ve Tedavisinde Kullanılan Laboratuvar Testleri

Öz

COVID-19 tanı testleri salgının ve hasta yönetiminin önemli bir parçasıdır. Tanı koydurucu moleküler, serolojik ve biyokimyasal markerlar aynı zamanda hastalığın tedavisi ve seyrinin izleminde önemli bilgiler vermektedir. Zaman geçtikçe laboratuvar verilerin incelenmesiyle bu verilerin önemi daha iyi anlaşılmış ve klinik pratikte daha yaygın kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Şiddetli COVID-19 hastalığı, çoklu organ yetmezliğine yol açan güçlü bir inflamatuar yanıt ile ilişkili olduğu açıktır. Klinik laboratuvar inflamatuar belirteçlerin değerlendirmesi yanında yoğun bakım ünitelerinde potansiyel organ yetmezliği göstergelerinin yakından izlenmesinde kritik rol oynar. Bu makale ile COVID-19 hastalığı tanı ve tedavisinde yol gösterici olan laboratuar verileri bir bütün olarak ele alınmaya çalışılmıştır.
