Abstract:
There are numerous complex mechanisms contributing to the evolution of septic shock, and early diagnosis and intervention will improve the prognosis of patient with septic shock. Recently plasma concentrations of some bio-markers like pro-ADM,pro-ANP,pro-ET1 and copeptin are found increasing in patient with septic shock.The plasma concentrations of these bio-markers are positively related with the severity of infection.These bio-markers have long halflife and are easily assayed. They may be the new bio-markers for the early diagnosis of septic shock.
