Analytical evaluation of the performances of point-of-care and benchtop procalcitonin assays in comparison with the B⋅R⋅A⋅H⋅M⋅S PCT sensitive KRYPTOR assay

Despite high overall agreement with the KRYPTOR assay, the evaluated assays (Wondfo, Getein, and Snibe) exhibit insufficient analytical performance at low PCT concentrations, which may limit their reliability in the diagnosis and management of sepsis and LRTI.

Abstract

Despite high overall agreement with the KRYPTOR assay, the evaluated assays (Wondfo, Getein, and Snibe) exhibit insufficient analytical performance at low PCT concentrations, which may limit their reliability in the diagnosis and management of sepsis and LRTI.
