Clinical impact of metagenomic next-generation sequencing of bronchoalveolar lavage fluids for the diagnosis of pulmonary infections in respiratory intensive care unit

Background: The real-world clinical impact of mNGS on BALF in the respiratory intensive care unit (RICU) is not yet fully understood. Methods: We investigated the clinical impact of mNGS on BALF samples obtained from 92 patients admitted to the RICU over a 2-year period. We utilized both mNGS and cu...
