Quantitative procalcitonin (PCT) test kit - Vietnam Registration 2300878ĐKLH/BYT-HTTB

VIDAS® B·R·A·H·M·S PCT™ is an automated test performed on the VIDAS® analyzer to detect human procalcitonin in serum or plasma (lithium heparin) samples by the ELFA (Enzyme-Linked Fluorescent Assay - Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay) technique. This test, combined with other test results and clinical assessments, is a valuable tool in the evaluation of critically ill patients on the first day of admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and in predicting the risk of severe sepsis and septic shock. Used in conjunction with other test results and clinical assessments, VIDAS® B·R·A·H·M·S PCT™ also supports the decision-making process for antibiotic therapy in patients with lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI), including community-acquired pneumonia, acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and acute bronchitis.
