Application of rapid Nanopore metagenomic cell-free DNA sequencing to diagnose bloodstream infections: a prospective observational study
26 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Bloodstream infections are a major cause of mortality, often leading to sepsis or septic shock. Rapid initiation of effective antimicrobial therapy is essential for survival; however, the current gold standard for identifying pathogens in bloodstream infections, blood culturing, has limitations with long turnaround time and poor sensitivity.
