Procalcitonin may help differentiate disseminated herpes simplex viral infection from bacterial sepsis in neonates.

European journal of pediatrics, 2000, Volume: 159, Issue:3

Disseminated herpes simplex virus infection is a potentially fatal condition which may be difficult to differentiate from bacterial sepsis. We report the case of a neonate with overwhelming herpes simplex (type 2) viraemia who presented with 'septic shock'.. A low procalcitonin level (1.6 ng/ml), inconsistent with bacteraemia, suggests an alternative aetiology and may strengthen the case for antiviral therapy.
