Hospital employees with suspected adenoviral conjunctivitis underwent evaluation and testing with real-time polymerase chain reaction. Viral conjunctivitis was suspected in 307 (59%) of 518 employees with eye complaints; adenovirus was detected in 4% (22 of 518). Four employees had genotypes consistent with epidemic keratoconjunctivitis. This algorithm minimizes productivity loss compared with clinical diagnosis.
疑似腺病毒性结膜炎的医院员工接受了实时聚合酶链反应评估和检测。在518名有眼部不适的员工中，307名（59%）疑似病毒性结膜炎；518名员工中有4%（22名）检测出腺病毒。4名员工的基因型与流行性角结膜炎一致。与临床诊断相比，该算法将生产力损失降至最低。
