Molecular diagnostic assays for the detection of common bacterial meningitis pathogens: a narrative review

Molecular diagnostic assays for the detection of common bacterial meningitis pathogens: a narrative review

Bacterial meningitis is a major global cause of morbidity and mortality. Rapid identification of the aetiological agent of meningitis is essential for clinical and public health management and disease prevention given the wide range of pathogens that cause the clinical syndrome and the availability...
