Summary
Inflammation is the general defense response of the body against various harmful irritations. Diagnosis of the inflammatory process and monitoring of its treatment is based on a combination of clinical and laboratory findings. Biochemical inflammatory markers usually serve to support the diagnosis of the infection, to monitor it, and to monitor the effectiveness of anti-infective treatment. The inflammatory marker should be selected according to the clinical condition with regard to the treachery and deficiencies of the markers, with knowledge of their dynamics and with regard to the length of the anamnesis. As an optimal procedure for detecting bacterial infection, it is recommended to screen for several acute phase proteins. The role of the physician is to determine when, under which circumstances, and which markers to have examined, with a view to ensuring that the patient is correctly diagnosed in time and receives appropriate treatment, and on the other hand, that he is not unnecessarily iatrogenized and that the medical facility does not lose money unnecessarily.
