Procalcitonin (PCT) levels for ruling-out bacterial coinfection in ICU patients with influenza: A CHAID decision-tree analysis

文摘

CHAID model illustrates multilevel interactions among risk factors to identify stepwise pathways for detecting bacterial coinfection.

PCT was the strongest variable associated with coinfection diagnosis by CHAID model analysis.

Low serum levels of PCT (<0.29 ng/mL) in patients without shock were an accurate predictor for ruling out coinfection.

PCT was a more accurate marker than CRP for coinfection diagnosis.
