Relationship between blood lactic acid, blood procalcitonin, C-reactive protein and neonatal sepsis and corresponding prognostic significance in sick children.

Abstract：

:The study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between the blood lactic acid (BLA) level, serum procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP) and the severity and prognosis of neonatal sepsis. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 90 children with sepsis admitted into the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Hubei Institute for Nationalities Af liated Hospital hospital. Patients were divided into the non-survival group and the survival group. Severity of the 90 patients was evaluated according to Neonatal Critical Illness Score (NCIS). Observations were made on changes of the levels of BLA, PCT and CRP, correlation between BLA, PCT, CRP and NCIS as well as the association of the levels of these proteins with the prognosis of the patients. The 90 sick children were divided into the survival group (61 cases, 67.7%) and the non-survival group (29 cases, 32.2%). They were further stratified into the extremely severe group (n=20), severe group (n=39) and non-severe group (n=31) according to NCIS scoring standard. The BLA and NCIS scores of the non-survival group were significantly greater than those of the survival group. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). We found that there was a significant negative correlation between the BLA values and NCIS scores of the two groups. We also demonstrated significant positive correlation between the BLA value, PCT and CR (P<0.05). We observed a significant negative correlation between PCT, CRP and NCIS scores (P<0.05). The PCT level of the non-survival group was significantly higher than that of the survival group (P<0.05), while the NCIS score was significantly lower than that of the survival group (P<0.05). The CRP and PCT protein expression results of the sepsis patients were higher than those of the control group. Therefore, there is a significant correlation between BLA, CRP, PCT and NCIS. The lower the NCIS score is, the more significant the increase of BLA, PCT and CRP. Thus, the combined detection of levels of BLA, PCT and CRP may predict the severity of neonatal sepsis patients and their prognosis.
