Thus, a total of 89 assessments of the patients' clinical status were conducted (referred to hereafter as 'conditions'), 48 of which indicated SIRS (53% of all patients), 35 sepsis (39% of all patients) and 6 septic shock (7% of all patients).
However, the difference in PCT between patients with SIRS and those with sepsis may be small.
Previous studies compared CRP, IL-2, IL-6, and TNF-α and PCT separately for differentiating SIRS from sepsis; in the present study, all of the available biochemical markers were measured at the same time [ 4, 7, 8, 9, 10].
On the basis of their findings, the investigators concluded that PCT, CRP, white blood cell and body temperature does not discriminate SIRS from sepsis, and PCT was the only parameter to discriminate between sepsis and severe sepsis [ 9].
Another group from Germany reported average PCT concentrations of 0.4 ± 3.0 ng/ml for SIRS, 0.5 ± 2.9 ng/ml for sepsis and 6.9 ± 3.9 ng/ml for severe sepsis.
