Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of procalcitonin (PCT ) and high sensitive C reactive protein (Hs-CRP) in the diagnosis of hyperbilirubinemia premature infant complicating infection .Methods A total of 192 cases of hyperbilirubinemia premature infants in our hospital were selected as the research subjects and divided into the infection group and non-infection group ac-cording to the clinical diagnostic results .The levels of WBC ,Hs-CRP ,PCT and total bilirubin(TB) were measured and performed the comparative analysis .Results The Hs-CRP ,PCT and TB levels in the infection group were significantly higher than those in the non-infected group ,the difference was statistically significant (P＜0 .05);while there was no significant difference in WBC count between the two groups(P＞0 .05) .PCT had higher sensitivity and specificity than Hs-CRP in the diagnosis of infection .The positive rates of PCT and Hs-CRP in the infection group were significantly higher than those in the non-infection group ,the difference was statistically significant (P＜0 .05) .Conclusion PCT and Hs-CRP can guide the early diagnosis of hyperbilirubinemia premature infant complicating infection and are conducive to early treatment and rehabilitation of the neonatal patients .
