Postoperative increase in inflammation biologic markers is associated with a nonspecific inflammatory response to a surgical injury. We investigated the kinetics of changes in serum concentrations of procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) after abdominal surgeries and we focused on the behaviour of those markers in the case of development of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). In the single centre we conducted a prospective observational study and we included patients admitted to the ICU after elective abdominal surgery. A total of 41 patients were included and 8 (19.5%) of them had clinical and laboratory signs of SIRS. Sepsis was confirmed in one of the patients, a 72-year old patient operat...
