A metagenomics method for the quantitative detection of bacterial pathogens causing hospital-associated and ventilator-associated pneumonia
ABSTRACT The management of ventilator-associated and hospital-acquired pneumonia requires rapid and accurate quantitative detection of the infecting pathogen(s). To achieve this, we propose a metagenomics next-generation sequencing (mNGS) assay that includes the use of an internal sample processing...
