ABSTRACT
Introduction: Presepsin is the soluble form of CD14 molecule, a glycoprotein expressed on the membrane
surface of monocytes and macrophages and important to inflammatory response. Several studies
suggest that presepsin measuring could be used as a good tool to early sepsis diagnosis.
Objective: To
determine the diagnostic and prognostic performance of presepsin in patients with clinical sepsis at a
high complexity hospital from Medellin, Colombia.
Materials and methods: A prospective, descriptive
cohort study was performed in 60 patients diagnosed with clinical sepsis between March and December
of 2012. Presepsin measurement was made at diagnosis time and after 24 and 72 hours. Blood culture,
C-reactive protein and procalcitonin were also measured but only at the diagnosis time.
Results:
98.3% of patients had presepsin values suggestive of sepsis, with a significantly higher value in patients
without clinical improvement (greater than 700 pg/mL). Presepsin values greater than 1,000 pg /mL at
0 and 72 hours of diagnosis was obtained in patients who died, but no significant differences compared
to those who did not die were observed. C-reactive protein and procalcitonin showed increased values
in most patients.
Conclusions: The findings of this study are related to others where it is concluded that
presepsin is a good marker of sepsis with an important prognostic value and greater specificity than
other traditional biomarkers.
