Real‐Time Polymerase Chain Reaction for Microbiological Diagnosis of Parapneumonic Effusions in Canadian Children

1 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) complicated by parapneumonic effusion/empyema is an infectious syndrome commonly encountered by physicians caring for children in Canada. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the incremental benefit of novel molecular testing for the microbiological diagnosis of pediatric CAP complicated by parapneumonic effusion/empyema in Canada. METHODS: A convenience sample of pleural fluid...
