Rapid nanopore sequencing and predictive susceptibility testing of positive blood cultures from intensive care patients with sepsis

ABSTRACTWe aimed to evaluate the performance of Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) sequencing from positive blood culture (BC) broths for bacterial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility prediction. Patients with suspected sepsis in four intensive care units were prospectively enrolled. Hum...
