Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing of Bloodstream Microbial Cell-Free Nucleic Acid in Children With Suspected Sepsis in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit

Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing of Bloodstream Microbial Cell-Free Nucleic Acid in Children With Suspected Sepsis in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit

Bloodstream infection is a life-threatening complication in critically ill patients. Multi-drug resistant bacteria or fungi may increase the risk of invasive infections in hospitalized children and are difficult to treat in intensive care units. The purpose of this study was to use metagenomic next-...
