Abstract

Alt solunum yolu enfeksiyonlarının bakteriyel ve viral etiyolojilerini ayırt etmek için sıklıkla serum prokalsitonin
(PCT) düzeyi değerlendirilmesine ihtiyaç duyulur. Çünkü bu belirteç enflamatuar bir durum veya bakteriyel bir
enfeksiyon yoksa saptanamayacak kadar düşük düzeydedir. COVID-19 enfeksiyonu sırasında, PCT’nin şüpheli
ve doğrulanmış COVID-19 vakalarında hastalığın tanısı için güvenilir veya yararlı bir test olup olmadığı tartışmalıdır. Bu derlemenin amacı, COVID-19 vakalarında PCT’nin klinik olarak yararlı bir test olup olmadığının
incelenmesidir.

The Relationship of Procalcitone Level with the Severity of COVID-19 Infection

Abstract

Procalcitonin (PCT) level is often evaluated to distinguish bacterial and viral etiologies of lower respiratory tract
infections because this marker is undetectable in the absence of an inflammatory condition or bacterial infection. During COVID-19 infection, it is controversial whether PCT is a reliable or useful test for diagnosing the disease in suspected and confirmed cases of COVID-19. The purpose of this review is to examine whether PCT is a clinically useful test in COVID-19 cases.
