Frequently Asked Questions
PCT levels range from <0.5 ng/mL to >10 ng/mL, indicating different stages of bacterial infection and sepsis severity. Higher levels typically suggest more severe infection.
A low PCT level (<0.5 ng/mL) can suggest that a bacterial infection is unlikely, but it should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical findings and other diagnostic tests.
By providing a semi-quantitative result, this test aids clinicians in making informed decisions about antibiotic treatment, potentially reducing unnecessary antibiotic use and combating antimicrobial resistance.
