Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of serum procalcitonin (PCT) level in patients with severe trauma,and to analyze its relationship with multiple organ failure (MODS).Methods From October 2013 to October 2018,the serum PCT levels were measured in 40 patients with severe trauma complicated with MODS (MODS group:40 cases) and 62 patients without MODS (non-MODS group:62 cases) in Yuncheng Central Hospital.The relationship between PCT and severity of trauma score (ISS),sequential organ failure (SOFA),acute physiology and chronic health status score (APACHE Ⅱ) and prognosis was analyzed.The predictive value of PCT in the prognosis of patients with MODS and severe trauma combined with MODS was analyzed by ROC.Results The serum PCT levels of the MODS group were (8.25 ± 2.35) μg/L,(7.26 ± 2.49) μg/L,(3.62 ± 1.75) μg/L on the 1 st,3rd and 7th day after admission,respectively,which were higher than those of the control group (t =7.561,9.561,8.251,all P <0.05).The serum PCT level in the MODS group increased with the increase of APACHE Ⅱ score and ISS score(F =12.108,9.173,all P < 0.05).The serum PCT level in the death group was higher than that in the survival group[(11.82 ± 3.75) μg/L vs.(4.92 ± 1.26) μg/L],and the difference was statistically significant (t =7.959,P <0.05).The area under MODS curve predicted by PCT for severe trauma patients was 0.848,with sensitivity and specificity of 80.00% (32/40),82.50% (33/40),respectively.The area under MODS curve predicted by PCT was 0.747,with sensitivity and specificity of 77.50% (31/40),72.50% (29/40),respectively.Conclusion The serum PCT level in patients with severe trauma complicated with MODS is significantly higher than that in patients without MODS,and its level is closely related to trauma,disease progression and prognosis.It is of great value to predict the occurrence and prognosis of MODS.
