    Abstract

    Procalcitonin (PCT), a 14-kilodalton, Calc-1 gene-coded protein, consisting of 116 amino acids, issecreted under normal conditions, from thyroid C-cells. Physiological levels of PCT in serum are negligible.1To determine if procalcitonin can be used to predict the clinical outcome in acute Myocardial Infarction -(M.I.) patients. Methods-This was a prospective analytical study on patients with acute myocardial infarction, admitted under the department of General Medicine, JIPMER, from July, 2020 to June 2021. The Institute Ethics Committee (Human Studies) approved the protocol on 6th July,2020. All patients both males and females, above 18 years of age, admitted in JIPMER under the Department of General Medicine, with definitive evidence of acute myocardial infarction, within 24 hours of admission were enrolled in the study
