SINOVA-M-14033 Procalcitonin (PCT) Quantitative Test Kit
Clinical Significance: PCT is a parameter for diagnosing and monitoring bacterial inflammatory diseases. Measurement of PCT can indicate:
- Differential diagnosis of bacterial versus non-bacterial infections and inflammations as an acute parameter.
- Monitoring patients at risk of infection (e.g., post-surgery, post-organ transplantation during immunosuppression, after multiple traumas) and those in intensive care units to detect systemic effects of bacterial infection or septic complications.
- Evaluating the clinical progression and prognosis of severe inflammatory diseases, such as peritonitis, sepsis, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS).
Product Specifications: 20 tests/box
Product Shelf Life: 18 months when sealed in an aluminum foil pouch. Use within 1 hour after opening the pouch.
Product Storage: Store the test card at 2℃-30℃.
Usage Scenarios:
- Hospitals and Clinics: For diagnosing and monitoring bacterial infections, distinguishing between bacterial and non-bacterial inflammations, and evaluating the severity of infections.
- Intensive Care Units (ICUs): For monitoring patients at risk of infection, such as those post-surgery, post-organ transplantation, or after multiple traumas, to detect systemic bacterial infections or septic complications.
- Diagnostic Laboratories: For routine testing of Procalcitonin (PCT) levels to assess and monitor severe inflammatory diseases, including sepsis, peritonitis, SIRS, and MODS.
Suitable Countries and Regions:
- Developed Countries: United States, Canada, Western Europe (e.g., Germany, France, UK), Japan, Australia, etc., where advanced diagnostic services and intensive care facilities are widely available.
- Emerging Markets: China, India, Southeast Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, Middle East, etc., where healthcare systems are expanding and investing in modern diagnostic tools to improve patient care.
- Global Health Programs: International health initiatives focused on improving infection monitoring and management in low-resource settings.
