Abstract
Method for early differential diagnosis and detection, prognosis and assessment of the severity and therapy-accompanying assessment of the course of sepsis and sepsis-like systemic infections, in which, preferably with determination of at least one further parameter suitable for sepsis diagnosis, the amount of CA 19-9 in a biological fluid of a patient who is suffering from sepsis or is suspected of having sepsis is determined and conclusions are drawn from the determined amount of CA 19-9 with regard to the presence, the expected course, the severity and/or the success of initiated measures for the treatment of the sepsis.
