Probably, this situation is a consequence of several factors. Firstly, sepsis diagnosis is difficult after severe thermal injury and requires the use of strict criteria described by the American Burn Association in 2007.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045">2</a> Secondly, authors exploring the utility of specific biomarkers of infection fail to apply the same sepsis yardstick,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0050">3–5</a> therefore published studies revealed a high level of heterogeneity. It would be due to classical sepsis definition, which includes little pathophysiological information.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0045">2,6</a> Lastly, mention that our group has explored the role of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Procalcitonin (PCT) for sepsis diagnosis in a small population of patients with severe burn injury.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0070">7</a> Our results show that the role of PCT in identifying infectious processes in critically burned patients is superior to CRP. Specifically, we found that increases in PCT levels showed a better discriminatory capacity for detecting sepsis, as compared to changes in CRP levels. Consequently, we consider that use of static cut-off points in this complex situation provides less information than temporal changes.Hopefully, in the next years, through well designed multicenter studies in severe burn injury patients, we would be able to valid our hypothesis and to demonstrate that temporal profile of serum biomarkers might identify high-risk patients of sepsis after severe burn injury guiding antibiotic treatment accordingly in our intensive care units.FundingThe authors of this paper have not received financial support or otherwise to perform this work.Conflicts of interestThe authors declare no conflict of interest."
