2297. The Diagnostic Yield of 16/18S rRNA PCR of Sterile Site Samples in Pediatric Patients

BACKGROUND: 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and 18S rRNA gene polymerase chain reaction (16/18S PCR) with sequencing can provide expeditious bacterial or fungal pathogen identification from sterile site samples (cost $474/PCR). Our objective was to assess the utilization and diagnostic yield of 16/18S PCR...
