Pathogen load and species monitored by droplet digital PCR in patients with bloodstream infections: A prospective case series study
4 Oct 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Bloodstream infection (BSI) is a life-threatening condition in critically ill patients, but pathogen quantification techniques during treatment are laborious. This study aimed to explore the impact of monitoring pathogen DNA load changes and polymicrobial infection in blood by droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) on the prognosis of patients with BSIs. METHODS: This...
