Rapid identification of pathogens associated with ventilator-associated pneumonia by Nanopore sequencing
1 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Aetiology detection is crucial in the diagnosis and treatment of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). However, the detection method needs improvement. In this study, we used Nanopore sequencing to build a quick detection protocol and compared the efficiency of different methods for detecting 7 VAP pathogens. METHODS: The endotracheal aspirate (ETA) of 83 patients with suspected VAP from Peking...
