A new molecular assay detecting toxigenic Clostridium difficile, the BD Max Cdiff (Becton, Dickinson), was evaluated with 360 diarrheal feces samples. It exhibited high sensitivity (97.7%) and specificity (99.7%). The positive (97.7%) and negative (99.7%) predictive values of this test allow an accurate answer within 2 h.
一种新的分子检测产毒艰难梭菌的方法,BD Max Cdiff(Becton,Dickinson),用 360 份腹泻粪便样本进行了评估。它表现出很高的灵敏度(97.7%)和特异性(99.7%)。该检测的阳性预测值(97.7%)和阴性预测值(99.7%)可在 2 小时内提供准确的答案。
