Metagenomic prediction of antimicrobial resistance in critically ill patients with lower respiratory tract infections
11 Jul 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is rising at an alarming rate and complicating the management of infectious diseases including lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI). Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is a recently established method for culture-independent LRTI diagnosis, but its utility for predicting AMR has remained unclear. We aimed to assess the performance of mNGS for AMR...
