Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression and correlation of serum n-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide(NT-pro BNP) and procalcitonin in patients with sepsis.Methods A total of 120 patients with sepsis and 40 healthy volunteers(control group) were enrolled.Sepsis patients were divided into general sepsis group,severe sepsis group and septic shock group according to the severity of the disease,each group of 40 cases.According to the prognosis of patients admitted to hospital after 28 d,all patients were divided into survival group and death group.Serum NT-pro BNP,PCT levels and acute physiology and chronic health status scores (APACHE-Ⅱ) were recorded.Results Compared with the control group,the serum levels of NT-pro BNP,PCT were significantly higher in sepsis group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);As sepsis progressed,serum NT-pro BNP,PCT level and APACHE Ⅱ score were significantly increased among 3 groups(P<0.05).The serum levels of PCT,serum NT-pro BNP and APACHE Ⅱ score in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The sensitivity and specificity of serum NT-pro BNP were 81.34% and 86.27% and PCT was 83.08% and 88.61%,respectively.The level of serum NT-pro BNP and serum PCT levels were positively correlated (r=0.826,P<0.05),the serum NT-pro BNP level correlated with the APACHE Ⅱ score positively (r=0.756,P<0.05),serum PCT level and APACHE Ⅱ score were positively correlated (r=0.702,P<0.05).Conclusion Prediction and assessment of disease severity in patients with sepsis and survival have important clinical application value of serum NT-pro BNP and PCT levels in BNP.
