Impact of Rapid Molecular Testing on Diagnosis, Treatment and Management of Community Acquired Pneumonia in Norway: a pragmatic randomised controlled trial
2022-04-21
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) causes a large burden of disease. Due to difficulties in obtaining representative respiratory samples and insensitive standard microbiological methods, the microbiological aetiology of CAP is difficult to ascertain. With a few exceptions, standard of care diagnostics are too slow to influence initial decisions on antimicrobial therapy. The...
