PSP as Indicator for Urinary Sepsis in ICU
Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. For clinical operationalization, organ dysfunction can be represented by an increase in the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score of 2 points or more, which is associated with an in-hospital mortality greater than 10%. pancreatic stone protein has been studied as biomarker of sepsis and results suggests that it has higher diagnostic performance. The main objective of this study is to identify ability of pancreatic stone protein (PSP) as a new biomarker for diagnosis of urosepsis in Intensive Care Units comparison to other biomarkers and its role as a prognostic marker for mortality
