Characterising the microbial and antimicrobial resistance signatures of hospital-acquired pneumonia using nanopore metagenomic sequencing
2025-08-18
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is a significant burden in nosocomial settings, yet its microbial underpinnings remain poorly understood. Here, we leverage shotgun nanopore sequencing to characterise the respiratory microbiomes of 250 HAP patients in a UK multi-site cohort, validating these using paired PCR and culture assays. Sequencing identified the dominant microbes implicated in...
