Optimizing treatment of respiratory tract infections in nursing homes: Nurse-initiated polymerase chain reaction testing

BACKGROUND: Diagnostic testing using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is infrequently initiated for diagnosis of respiratory tract infections (RTIs) in nursing homes. The objectives of this study were to determine the feasibility of implementing nurse-initiated PCR testing of respiratory specimens in...
