Dynamic changes and prognostic utility of procalcitonin, D-dimer, and lactate dehydrogenase in patients with sepsis and septic shock
PCT, D-D, and LDH are valuable biomarkers for stratifying disease severity and predicting clinical outcomes in patients with sepsis. Admission levels of these biomarkers were independently associated with the development of septic shock, and their dynamic changes provided additional prognostic information.
