2029. Comparison of Primers Amplifying Two Different Regions of the 16S Ribosomal RNA Gene for Microbiologic Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device Infection

BACKGROUND: Bacterial cultures are negative in over 13% of cases of Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) Infections. Broad-range PCR and Sanger sequencing could potentially establish a microbiologic diagnosis in these patients. We aim to evaluate and compare detection and sequencing p...
