METHODS FOR DETERMINING THE LIKELIHOOD OF A PATIENT CONTRACTING A NOSOCOMIAL INFECTION AND FOR DETERMINING THE PROGNOSIS OF THE COURSE OF A SEPTIC SYNDROME

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for the patient to determine the prognosis of progress septic syndrome from the method of determining a risk for nosocomial infection, and patient, the method follows the steps of: a) a biological sample is obtained from a patient, wherein phase is extracted biological material from the biological sample; b) a target gene S100A9 and step in which one or more specific reagents obtained from the expression body of at least one target gene selected from S100A8; c) the step will be one or more of the target gene expression of S100A9 and S100A8 decision, in which relatively over-expression for the pre-determined threshold value does not only refer to the risk for hospital infections refers to a poor prognosis of progress septic syndrome.;
