Monocyte distribution width compared with C-reactive protein and procalcitonin for early sepsis detection in the emergency department.
<h4>Purpose</h4>Monocyte distribution width (MDW) has been suggested as an early biomarker of sepsis, but few studies have compared MDW with conventional biomarkers, including C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT). This study evaluated MDW as a biomarker for sepsis and compare...
