Prospective Evaluation of a Rapid Clinical Metagenomics Test for Bacterial Pneumonia

Prospective Evaluation of a Rapid Clinical Metagenomics Test for Bacterial Pneumonia

BackgroundThe diagnosis of bacterial pathogens in lower respiratory tract infections (LRI) using conventional culture methods remains challenging and time-consuming.ObjectivesTo evaluate the clinical performance of a rapid nanopore-sequencing based metagenomics test for diagnosis of bacterial pathog...
