Soluble CD14-subtype (Prespsin) and Hepcidin as Diagnostic and Prognostic markers in Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis

Background: The clinical picture and laboratory markers of Early-onset neonatal sepsis
(EONS) are nonspecific, however a variety of different molecules have been suggested as
clinical biomarkers in sepsis. Presepsin (soluble CD14-subtype) has been identified as a
protein whose level increases significantly in the blood of septic patients. Hepcidin, an
iron homeostasis regulator, it can be used in diagnosis of neonatal sepsis.
Objectives:
The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of new markers namely presepsin and
hepcidin in diagnosis of EONS compared to CRP before and after antibiotic therapy.
