22 Jul 2025
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Respiratory infections pose a significant risk for people requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation, yet limited information exists regarding the complex microbiome dynamics of people with tracheostomies during chronic critical illness. Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) long-read sequencing allows for full-length 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, providing enhanced species-level understanding of the...
