245. Plasma and Respiratory Specimen Metagenomic Sequencing for the Diagnosis of Severe Pneumonia in Mechanically-Ventilated Patients
BACKGROUND: Metagenomic sequencing of respiratory microbial communities may overcome the limitations of culture-based pneumonia diagnostics. Nonetheless, respiratory metagenomics requires high-quality specimens, may miss deep-seated infections and cannot distinguish colonization from infection. Plas...
