摘要
目的分析血清降钙素原(PCT)和尿培养之间的关系,以探讨血清降钙素原检测对尿路感染(UTI)的意义。方法选取550例疑似尿路感染的临床患者同时进行中段尿培养和血清降钙素原检测,分析两者之间的关系。结果血清降钙素原(PCT)与细菌培养结果无统计学差异(P>0.05),上尿路感染患者PCT水平明显高于下尿路感染患者(P<0.01)。结论血清PCT水平的测定对尿路感染有定位作用,血清PCT对尿路感染有重要意义。
Objective To explore clinical significance of serum procalcitonin（PCT） in the diagnosis of urinary tract infection （UTI） by analyzing the relationship between serum PCT and urine culture. Methods The serum PCT determination and urine cul ture were performed in 550 suspected patients with UTI and the relationship of results of the two detection were analyzed. Results There was no significant difference between serum PCT and urine culture（P〉0.05）. The serum PCT level in patients with upper UTI was significantly higher than that in those with lower UTI（P〈0.01）. Conclusion Serum PCT could be used as a marker to differentiate the upper and lower UTI. There might be with clinical significance of serum PCT arid urine culture in the diagnosis of UTI.
