Paired nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs collected from 533 children hospitalized with lower respiratory tract infection were assessed by multiplex reverse transcription-PCR. Oropharyngeal swabs increased the number of viral infections detected by 15%, compared to collection of a nasopharyngeal swab alone. This advantage was most pronounced for detection of influenza, parainfluenza, and adenovirus.
对 533 例因下呼吸道感染住院的儿童进行了检测,使用多重逆转录-PCR 对采集的鼻咽和口咽拭子进行分析。与单独采集鼻咽拭子相比,采集口咽拭子将病毒感染的检出数量增加了 15%。这一优势在流感、副流感和腺病毒的检测中最为显著。
