The BioFire® FilmArray® meningitis/encephalitis (FA/ME) panel provides rapid testing for common cerebrospinal fluid pathogens. We compared empiric antibiotic utilization between patients with suspected community-acquired meningitis with and without an FA/ME panel ordered. No significant differences in antibiotic use were found.
BioFire® FilmArray® 脑膜炎/脑炎(FA/ME)检测板可对常见的脑脊液病原体进行快速检测。我们比较了开具和未开具FA/ME检测板的疑似社区获得性脑膜炎患者的经验性抗生素使用情况。结果发现抗生素使用情况无显著差异。
