    What is a Procalcitonin Test?

    The Procalcitonin test checks the level of procalcitonin in your blood, a protein that rises significantly in response to severe bacterial infections. While normally low, high procalcitonin levels can indicate serious infections or sepsis, a dangerous condition where an infection spreads into the bloodstream, leading to widespread inflammation and potential organ damage. This test is especially useful for differentiating between bacterial and viral infections and deciding if antibiotics are necessary. It's frequently used in hospitals to diagnose bacterial infections and sepsis, assess the severity of sepsis, guide treatment decisions, and track treatment progress.

    If you live in Delhi and are experiencing symptoms such as fever, chills, rapid heartbeat, confusion, or shortness of breath, book a Procalcitonin test to get critical information for effective management.
