Prognostic Value of Procalcitonin, CRP, Serum Amyloid A, Lactate and IL-6 Markers in Liver Transplant Patients Admitted to ED with Suspected Infection

Abstract

We can use CRP, PCT, lactate, SAA and IL-6 parameters to identify presence of infection at the liver transplantation patients admitted to the emergency department with suspected infection. If CRP, PCT and IL-6 levels are significantly high we can guess the patient's positive culture.
