Comparative Diagnostic Evaluation of Real-Time PCR and Culture for Detecting Pathogens in Podiatric Wound Infections

2025-08-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Culture-based wound infection diagnostics have well-recognized limitations in detecting fastidious, anaerobic, or polymicrobial pathogens. This study compared the performance of a PCR wound panel with traditional culture. <h4>Methods</h4> Dual-swab specimens from 93 clinical wound cases underwent both culture and PCR testing. Analyses included organism-level concordance, Gram stain correlatio...
