Hi, 
I been asked to search, to see if other institutions are using procalcitonin as a sepsis marker.  We currently are using the Nova Biomedical Lactate Meter in ED as a screening, first initial Lactate for our sepsis checklist.

HI
Our hospital uses procalcitonin as a sepsis marker.  We just changed from the Mini-Vidas to Roche.  Just updated instrumentation in our Chemistry Department.
