The PCT Rapid Test Device – Apoti POCT Analyzer is a diagnostic kit that is used to measure the concentration of procalcitonin (PCT) in whole blood.

To use the PCT Rapid Test Device – Apoti POCT Analyzer, follow these steps:

1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
2. Puncture your fingertip with the lancing device.
3. Collect a small drop of blood on the test strip.
4. Apply the test strip to the Apoti POCT Analyzer.
5. The analyzer will display the results of the test within minutes.

The PCT Rapid Test Device – Apoti POCT Analyzer is a rapid and accurate way to measure PCT. It is often used in clinical settings to diagnose sepsis, especially in people who are at risk for the condition.

Here are some of the normal ranges of PCT levels:

• Adult: <0.5 ng/mL

If your PCT levels are elevated, it means that you may have sepsis. However, it is important to note that PCT is not a perfect diagnostic test. Other conditions, such as pneumonia and meningitis, can also cause elevated PCT levels.

If your PCT levels are elevated, your doctor will likely order other tests, such as a blood culture or a chest X-ray, to confirm the diagnosis.
