ABSTRACT
Biomarkers play an important role in the management of infectious pulmonary diseases, even though there is only limited evidence that biomarker-guided therapies are superior to clinical strategies.Well-established indications for the use of biomarkers are the guidance of the duration of antibiotic therapy in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) by PCT, the decision against the use of antibiotics by CRP or PCT in ambulatory settings, and the evaluation of CAP treatment by CRP or PCT kinetics.In the prognostic assessment of CAP, the standard biomarkers of acute organ dysfunction should be given priority, e.âg. leukocyte and platelet counts, creatinine/urea and lactate, in combination with clinical signs and symptoms.MR-pro-ADM could enrich diagnostics in the future. Genetic transcriptome analysis is a completely new and promising concept.
