Procalcitonin Test

PCT or Procalcitonin test measures the level of procalcitonin in the blood. Procalcitonin is a substance that is

produced by the body in response to tissue injury and bacterial infections. This test helps to detect severe bacterial

infections which have a risk to progress towards sepsis and eventually organ failure and septic shock. This is a life

threatening condition and needs aggressive antibiotic therapy. It may also be used to distinguish between a bacterial

and viral infection. Other conditions where procalcitonin may be mildly elevated are trauma, surgery, pancreatitis,

burns, cardiogenic shock (related to a heart attack), acute organ transplant rejection, and kidney involvement in

urinary tract infections in children.
