Abstract

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of C-reactive protein (CRP), lactate, procalcitonin and albumin levels and procalcitonin/albumin ratio used as indicators of infection on mortality in critical patients admitted to the intensive care unit and their relationships with APACHE-II and SOFA scores.
