Multiplex bacterial PCR in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of non-intubated patients with suspected pulmonary infection: a quasi-experimental study

BACKGROUND: Early pathogen identification in pulmonary infection is crucial to guide antibacterial therapy and decrease length of hospital stay. We hypothesise that compared to conventional diagnostic methods, a multiplex bacterial polymerase chain reaction assay has a higher diagnostic yield in bro...
