Abstract: Procalcitonin(PCT) is a new infection-associated biomarker. It plays an important role in the early diagnosis of severe infection after cardiac surgery, identification of infectious and non-infectious SIRS, assessing the severity of infection and prognosis. PCT has been widely used as a clinical index.
