Procalcitonin (PCT)

According to CDC, every year at least 1.7 millions American adults develop sepsis and early 270,000 dies. For each hour sepsis treatment is delayed, the patient's risk of death increases by 4 percent, making our point-of-care solution especially valuable. PCT allows differentiation of patients where sepsis is caused by bacterial infection.
