Abstract
We evaluated data from gastroenteritis outbreaks in Oregon to assess sensitivity of stool testing for norovirus and determine number of specimens needed to confirm norovirus as the cause. Norovirus can be readily confirmed if 3-6 specimens are collected any time ≤7 days after onset of diarrhea and for almost that long after symptoms resolve.
摘要
我们评估了俄勒冈州肠胃炎暴发的数据，以评估粪便检测诺如病毒的敏感性，并确定确认诺如病毒为病因所需的样本数量。如果在腹泻发作后≤7 天的任何时间收集 3-6 份样本，并且在症状缓解后几乎那么长时间，那么可以很容易地确认诺如病毒。
